My vote to change official name form PostgreSQL to PostgresQL. The reason is: many young people look at PostgreSQL and think that the short name is Postgre. Sounded awfully, especially in Russian, tied to fix neighbours. With PostgresQL they will think that the short name is Postgres and this is good. Also will be opinion that PostgreQL = Postgres Query Language, this is also true, due to lack in Postgres many standard SQL features still.


There was a very long thread on -advocacy about this:

https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/200709021633490000%402178418992

It ended up(sort of) with PostgreSQL as the official name and Postgres as 'official' secondary/alternate name. Can't remember if it was this thread or another where naming questions got spun off into a separate list in order to prevent a repeat endless discussion. All of this is the long way of saying I doubt anyone will want to go down this path again.
