If you renamed ActiveRecord::Base to ActiveRecord::Model, then a model that inherited from ActiveRecord::Model would get its methods from ActiveRecord::Model. You could make this completely backwards compatible too. Just rename ActiveRecord::Base to ActiveRecord::Model and then: ActiveRecord::Base = ActiveRecord::Model That being said, I'd say that changing to a more accurate name isn't worth the risk of confusion.
