Freebase? Just kidding... How about:

The ones with node have a nice ring... node is not overused in EDA, and
it describes the point where branches divide, which is what all our
little switches and gates and muxes do to datastreams.... branch them as
in a result plus a carry, or converge them as in and or mult div sub. All the little objects we save are at the most primitive level a node,
or even at a higher abstraction level a block that takes in three 64 bit
streams and outputs two of them is a kind of node also...
gatedb gateman (for gate manipulation) nodedb nodeman nodegen (as you suggested)
