This one will be painful, but...

1. GC3 is no more
2. no one ever got the pun "gc3.py" -> "GC3Pie"
3. we were not naming releases after kinds of pie

What about "gremlin"?  It starts with "g" so we can keep all the
`g`-named scripts...

New suggestion: "greta".  Also works as an acronym: Generic Remote Execution 
for Tasks and Applications.

Can be permuted to form "great", but then googling for "python great" is 
probably not going to yield our site as first match.

Suggestion from the EasyBuild workshop (kind of tongue-in-cheek, tho): 
"gsubmittr.io".  Very web-2.0-ish ;-)

Another suggestion: "grasshopper" (motto: "Turn your computational jobs into a 
biblical plague")

Although there seems to be a software named "Rhino.Grasshopper" that's 
scriptable in a variant of Python called GHPython.

If we are willing to let go the `g` initial, then a good suggestion might be 
"legion" ("My name is Legion, for we are many") -- could use `lg` as marker 
letters instead of a single `g`.

But there is already a couple Python packages called "legion": 
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/legion and 
https://github.com/orlandov/legion-python

How about "Snake Swarm"? Google search only brings up results related to 
Role-playing games...
