I have spent some time reviewing this
http://www.ubuntu.com/aboutus/trademarkpolicy for other reasons, and there
is a section pertaining to naming remixes.

I would suggest Ubuntu GSR (for "GNOME Shell Remix"), it sounds kind of
high-tech, mysterious, perhaps a bit mechanical (a motorcycle of some
kind?) and it isn't hard to pronounce.

Regards,

Brett
