I’m not the original dev, but I fail to see why SLIME is ‘derogatory’.
Also, SLIME has existed since 2003 (and is very popular) - arbitrarily
changing names will only confuse the users.

As a side point: A big amount of people consider GIMP as derogatory
(and it's name actively harms it’s reputation), but GNU is refusing to
rename it. Maybe instead of SLIME, renaming GIMP might be more useful?
