Well, that really sounds pretty awkward to me. I regularly call such commits "amend". If there is a risk I confuse myself as to which commit needs to be amended, I use "amend.<short-hint>". I'd really rather stay with "fixup". And as I use single-letter commands quite often, I'd also rather stay away from that magic "!". And by "magic" I really mean that: people will not find that magic intuitive at all. My vote is for "fixup".
