Wikipedia (from Function Composition):
/g/ ∘ /f/is read as "/g/circle/f/", "/g/round/f/", "/g/about/f/",
"/g/composed with/f/", "/g/after/f/", "/g/following/f/", "/g/of/f/", or
"/g/on/f/".
I would say 'on', but I don't think that's much better than the others,
including 'atop'. Maybe 'after' would be easiest for newcomers.

Piet,
I cannot answer your question, but I do not like "atop" either.
To me the rewording would be as follows, though: (your line first, my line
second) notice the missing "of".
'It seems more natural to say (u@v y) is "u of v of y” rather than 'u
atop v of y.”'
