Exactly. How would you name the ID if only savannah.gnu.org existed (but
not its nongnu sibling)? "savannah" or "gnu"?

Thinking about it, "nongnu" is probably fine. nongnu.org even redirects
to savannah.nongnu.org.

It's a fair point and it's one I raised in #gentoo-qa, although the same
comment applies to gitlab, GitHub, and sourcehut.

savannah-nongnu unfortunately sounds very clunky.

Also, I can't really imagine what else 'gnu' would actually
refer to?

Best,

I think they should be called savannah and savannah-nongnu because gnu
isn't savannah. There are many GNU packages that are hosted elsewhere,
e.g. gcc, gdb, glibc, or binutils.
