While I have no semantic or cultural objection to the name, I do have an aesthetic one: /ə.ɒ/ (i.e. mid-central vowel followed by a short open back rounded vowel, with a syllable boundary between them), as found in the middle of "LibreOffice", seems phonologically misbegotten to this particular Anglophone's ear. (From the software standpoint, I'm in favour of LO rather than AOO.)

The World is big and chock-full of people that do not speak English. Be a bit more open, it will make you Libre.

The first time I've seen libreoffice in my system during "apt-get upgrade" I was confused. After all, what "lib-reoffice" does?
