Descriptive names are much better for non-technical users compared to a menu entry called "Pup". You can easily use the menu editor to find out names without ever touching the command line FYI.

Surely using the feature of .desktop files called 'GenericName' is much better for this purpose, rather than abusing 'Name' which presents an inconsistent naming style in the menus, then you can have the best of both worlds. Worse still, is when descriptive names are ironically... exactly the opposite. I have entry in my system menu called "Configuration Editor", very useless and entirely uninformative to both technical and non-technical users. For record I use KDE but assume the issues are similar in Gnome.
