Naming conventions.

Characters adapted from another work are assumed to have the same name as the original version of that character unless: 1) a different name is explicitly stated, 2) the original version of the character is ambiguous (i.e. the multitude of Crimson Dynamos), or 3) there is some sufficient reason to believe the character would have a different name.

I understand that last exception is a little nebulous, but it doesn't apply in this situation. Negasonic Teenage Warhead never being called "Ellie Phimister" in Deadpool, for example, is not on its own a sufficient reason to believe she would not have that name, because that is the exact scenario the naming convention is in place to address.

If you believe the naming convention should be updated, I recommend you take that position to the Policies board. Discussing the naming conventions is a frequent topic over there.
