We hadn’t.  I called my implementation`HTTPSketch` just because that’s what was in the Subject line of the email thread.  

We have to name it something, because we have to put some name in the `Package.swift` file if people are going to be able to `import` it.

I, personally, think that calling it `HTTP` is weird and likely to cause confusion (not to mention make it really hard to find on Google and StackOverflow), but then I spent so long as an iOS developer that I still want to put `NS` on the front of everything, so I might not be the right one to decide.
