I'm not opposed to it, but:
1- the name of the file isn't particularly important.  99.9% of the
   users won't ever know about it.
2- the only case where it's important is in terms of "namespace
   conflicts", so giving the name of an existing file could introduce
   problems (e.g. someone expecting (require 'autopair) to define
   specific functions/variables).

So I think it's better to stay with elec-pair.el and move on.
