I very much agree with this. When someone does a web search on just sage, all kinds of other sites are returned. When telling people about Sage, one often only gets the chance to say a quick "look up sage on the Internet". I was in a meeting with the head of Ohio's Learning Network organization a couple weeks ago and I was able to make a few comments about Sage. I noticed that everyone in the room picked up their pencils and wrote down notes on what I said, but I bet that most of them will have a hard time finding Sage on the Internet if they wrote the URL down wrong. Now that the SAGE acronym has been dropped, I would recommend changing the name to sagemath. This name matches the sagemath.org website, it helps explain what sage is, and search engines will not return unrelated sites if this name is used.
