I'm not sure if your question is meant to be serious
or not, but I'll try to give a serious answer anyway.
I'm working on that file right now. :-)
Basically the name is kept for historical reasons.
When the forth-implemented boot menu was introduced,
the forth file displayed that menu alongside an ASCII
picture of the BSD daemon [1] mascot which is commonly
called "Beastie" [2]. Therefore that forth file got
the name beastie.4th.
For those that may not notice it:
beastie sounds like BSD
