If someone else made a speech synthesizer named "Char2wav", wouldn't the author of this project feel like their branding was being stolen from them?


"branding" a project that way might make the authors unhappy, but i can totally imagine someone saying in a couple of months "I built a char2wav net with GRUs and deconvolution" or something like that, ie using the word as a generic term...


That's the risk of using the type signature of your function as the name of the project. It may become a generic term whether or not you like it.
