I think it would be nice to have "Python" in the name.
Imagine the book title:
"Programming in ___________________"
A. IronPythonConsole
B. FePy
C. IronPy
D. IronPython
Choice "D" gets my vote - it's not too hard to type the last 4 letters of
Python. It adds a lot to the name for people who may have heard of Python
but not IronPython.
Although the distribution name (*.exe) doesn't have to be the same as the
"official" name, it certainly helps to keep things as simple and clear as
reasonably possible.
