Considering the recent news/proposal from SUSE about OpenSUSE rebranding - what do you think would be some fitting names for the distro/community?

It's trendy to rebrand things with an X.

Let's call it X.

I think they should allow themselves to give a whole new name, as if you were starting your own distro. How would you like to name it? Go for it.

The proposed "GeekOS" is a horrid name but Geeko Linux could work. But would be confusing with the existing GeckoLinux

OpenDistro Leap/Tumbleweed/Aeon/...

OpenDistro should identify the community tools used for building the various distro. One distinctive aspect of OpenSUSE is how it is easy to create new distro, or custom repositories. So it should be the focus of the new naming scheme.
