My reasons:

Duck>Handle
As nikitakit, I don't have confusion with handle as verb. Used after the noun 
it is always one adjetive to me. I recognize that Control point is much more 
common name and it will be easier to translate in any language. Specially in 
Spanish, "handle" is as hard to translate as "duck".

BLine>Spline
The BLine is not only used to create shapes but it is also used to create 
gradients, plants, etc. and shape is more specific for the region like object.

BLinePoint>Spline item
Why this change? for coherence with future suggested Width item and existing 
Dash item. All them belong to a list like value node so compose it by "items" 
is the right way to me to call them.

Vertex>Vertex
Also, why this change? I've realized that we already have a Origin duck (sorry, 
handle) that is green and represents the origin of the layers. This item (the 
vertex) is represented by a brown handle and it is the Vertex of the Spline 
item. I think that we adopted Origin because the word Vertex was already in use 
to replace blinepoint. We shouldn't rename Origin because it would create 
confusion at the toggle ducks (handles) buttons.

BLine tool>Spline tool
Same reasons than for Bline. The BLine tool is not used only for shapes


Darn! Handle is hard to use! :)
