"It's ridiculous to complain about "libsodium" and then hold up "awk" as a good name."

I never really understood what was "wrong" with the NaCl library that it needed another version that does not have the string "nacl" somewhere in the name

I also remember Google named some heavily promoted non-cryptography project "NaCl" subsequent to the NaCl library's release making any searches for "NaCl" biased toward Google's software

I still use original NaCl, e.g., for CurveDNS, tinysshd, dq and dqcache, not libsodium
