Naming of bcc

I am going to create a package of Bruce's C compiler for AUR. It is generally called bcc (the binary is also called bcc). However, there exists another bcc in AUR which is "Gaisler BCC cross-compiler". There is a name conflict. Should I name the package bruce-c-compiler? But it sounds quite strange... Do you have any suggestions?

Re: Naming of bcc

I suggest BruCC but it is entirely up to you.

Re: Naming of bcc

Actually when I hear bcc I think of Borland C Compiler.

Perhaps bruce-cc would be the simplest and clearest.

Re: Naming of bcc

That sounds a great idea.

And it is really quite confuse that its name is also the same as Borland C Compiler...
