I am thinking of proposing to name accepted PEPs as PAPs

There's precedent for *not* doing that kind of thing.
"RFC" stands for "Request For Comment", and it stays that
way long after it has become adopted as a standard!

Personally, I don't think that encoding the acceptance status in the ID
is very useful. There's so much more about the PEP that doesn't get
encoded in the ID, like *what it is about*. For example, if somebody
mentioned PEP 450, or PAP 450, to me, I would have no clue what it was,
and I wrote it!

Maybe posts to the Python lists could be passed through a
filter that looks for PEP references and adds information to
them.

E.g. if someone typed "PEP 9876" into a post it might get
replaced by "PEP 9876 - Add turboencabulation module to stdlib
(Rejected)".
