I second this. It's not only with search engines that the problem lies, but in simple things like trying to grep for mon in a log file or using locate to find mon files in a file system or finding a mon package in a package manager like dselect. Trying to work with mon has taught me a great deal about what the characteristics of a good or bad name are. A good name will be nearly unique and will not be identical to some part of common words or names. Anyway, changing a name might be difficult, but I hope it can be kept in the wish list at the very least.
