What algorithms have names that you don't like and why? If you could change their names what would the new names be?

My choices: Dijkstra: It is too hard to pronounce. I think it should be called Dijimon. Sprague-Grundy: I don't like the name, "Grundy". It sounds too uncouth. I would prefer just Sprague. I also like the term nimbers so the Nimber theorem would also be acceptable.
