If I look at it from an SEO perspective, TiddlyWiki is relatively 
widespread, but at first the new name may not appear on the first page of 
Google. I don't know if that matters, but it's also an aspect.

Will the incompatibility that PMario says be as great as TWC vs TW5? I 
didn't know Tiddly at the time, but if I guess, plugins need to be modified 
for the new version, or (if other changes are made) rewritten completely 
(`$tw`, `options.wiki.getTiddler()`, etc.).

I think you need to look at how popular the name is and if there is a hit, 
you have to see if it is also software. For example, I wrote a Bash script 
called Mosh, which has been reported by many to have already been reserved 
for an Android shell - so there was an existing program on the same topic 
that leads to confusion. You could also use Google transaltor to see if it 
means something in different languages.
