Did you also try with MS, OracleSQL and My? Removing SQL from Postgre(s)
is the same as this, I think. 

I don't see a point in changing our name -- let's focus on new features,
new marketing ideas, etc. If a person does not use PostgreSQL because of
our name, then he/she may surely drop, I don't care.
