+1 Namespace - if I understood correctly what you were looking for in the first place
+0.5 Schema - I like the name very much but there are other things named Schema
As for kw param, I would call it the same as the object it expects. This could be the reason alone to choose Namespace over Schema or to go the other way and call param dbschema and someday have DbSchema if needed.

the changes afoot are actually big enough that a switch of "schema='foo'"
to "schemaname='foo'" is not the end of the world. Hold off on the
Oreilly book press please (what animal would a SQLAlchemy be anyway ?) !
possible types of Schema:
Schema(name) - a place to put your tables. no engines are in use,
explicit Connections must be used to do things.
BoundSchema(name, engine_or_url) - a place to put your tables, that can
bind to an engine. SQL operations derived from SchemaItems bound to this
Schema will be automatically bound to the underlying Engine if not
overridden.
DynamicSchema(name, threadlocal=True) - a place to put your tables, that
binds to an engine, that has a connect() method that uses a particular
engine on a thread-local basis
