The convention for these is loosely modeled off of:
The modules might be better named JWS
not ES256K
and EdDSA
... since secp256k1 both support Schnorr and ECDSA....
The term "Curve25519KeyPair" is probably not a good choice for normal "Ed25519KeyPair", given this:
https://w3c-ccg.github.io/did-method-key/#key-derivation-lacks-proof
and in fact we also have a key class that just does ECDH... https://github.com/transmute-industries/did-key.js/blob/master/packages/x25519/src/X25519KeyPair.ts#L222
^ which you would probably have a similar naming objection too, since X25519 is for key agreement, not for curve naming.
In general, we (and digital bazaar) appear to be following the lib sodium conventions here... https://libsodium.gitbook.io/doc/advanced/ed25519-curve25519
But I am open to exploring improvemnets.
