Yes, so I do not think any name needs to lock in the "Cato" aspect. People can adjust to a name change. Frankly I think it would be a better idea not to use his name. It could be considered an honor, and he probably did not register the name or anything (right?), but personally I just feel it should break from using his name presumably without his knowledge. True he may be lurking and know about this and not be vetoing it, yet I think it more likely he does not know and saying that if he does not nix it that it is fine does not seem right to me.

I think "OOTPBase" is good because it includes the "Base" part for those wanting continuity in the naming. Maybe something like ReferenceBase or OOTP ReferenceBase could pull in the Baseball Reference aspect.
