Honestly I have never heard of any of those and so long as they aren't too close in what their intended use is I don't see the issue. Worse case it can just be called GluonVM then you have no ambiguity as to what you're talking about. Naming can be a pain. The worst I've seen so far was the WAMP protocol we saw posted sometime back.
