Unless the system name change makes absolutely perfect sense, I think it should be avoided, especially when it concerns a vanilla system. Omega-3 is a bit iffy, but concerning the amount of Bretonian control has been shown (or forced) in the system, it at least makes some amount of sense. On the other hand, I still abhor the rename of Edinburgh, which I've said before in other threads how much sense it doesn't make.

It's a hit-or-miss topic, but a rule of thumb is to think fourteen times before touching a vanilla system's name, even if it generally makes some amount of sense. Modded systems, like Orkney, are within the Devs' realm to change. They added them, so I don't really care. Orkney is still Orkney but with less -ay and more -oui.

But then, this is just my own opinion.

To be fair, it, again, makes writing using old notations a little bit harder to understand, because the connection has to be made that old system, is in fact, renamed old system. It's kind of like referring to Romania as Wallachia. Sure, it's correct, but it's a name no one's really used to using.
