Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-7202:
-------------------------------------

I would also recommend we restrict names to 3 syllables. Here is how i see it

{quote}
GeoPoint: 1 dimension with morton z encoding -> GeoMortonZLatLonPoint
{quote}

Why? such a complicated name. Why do we need Geo? Why do we need Morton if we 
have Z? Why not just MortonPoint?

{quote}
LatLonPoint: 2 dimensions -> GeoLatLonPoint
{quote}

Putting Geo in front of this is not helping. Why not just LatLonPoint?

{quote}
Geo3dPoint: 3 dimensions -> GeoXYZPoint
{quote}

Putting Geo in front of this doesn't help. Why not just XYZPoint?

> There are three different spatial implementations circulating at the moment, 
> and nobody seems happy with the naming of them.  For each implementation 
> strategy, we need both a module name and a descriptive technology name that 
> we can use to distinguish one from the other.  I would expect the following 
> people to have an interest in this process: [~rcmuir], [~dsmiley], 
> [~mikemccand], etc.
