Maybe the third one will be called "Angular.js", that's nicely unambiguous

This is a roadblock in front of every single Angular(JS)-related StackOverflow or Google search query, forever

Calling it "Angular 2" or "AngularJS 2" would have been better, but still annoying for the purposes of searching.

You'd end up in the Python nightmare. Every query for mere "Python" gives Python 2 results and the trailing "3" is aggravatingly unskippable

I have a pet theory that this factor, more than any other, hurt/is hurting uptake of Python 3

Which is why a better answer might be to select a brand new (but similar-looking) name, like THIS:https://twitter.com/m_strehl/status/843554450325356548 …

Or version codenames, like THIS:https://twitter.com/RavenWorks/status/843556202462298113 …

Uptake of Angular (the second one) is going to be harmed by this. And I'm now uncertain whether to use it over AngularJS (the first one)
