Comment(by benjaminfjones):

 I see your point. How about the following names:

  * `exp_integral_e`
  * `exp_integral_e1`
  * `exp_integral_ei`
  * `log_integral` (for li)
  * `log_integral_offset` for (Li)
  * `cos_integral`
  * `sin_integral`
  * `sinh_integral`
  * `cosh_integral`

 ... and maybe aliases for the usual mathematical names: `li, Li, En, Ei,
 E1, si, ci, shi, chi` ? Perhaps that would be too many new names in the
 global name space?
