There's not really a way to put this nicely, but vore is a terrible name. If you don't know, it's a surprisingly popular fetish category and not something I would ever want to type into a search engine.
I'm grateful someone said this for me.

What if they know / it's on purpose?

I bet most people who don't frequent tumblr/reddit et al don't have the slightest idea of what "vore" is. The internet is pretty large, and humans are pretty clueless on average.
People barely know what an address bar is for these days. It's certain a large amount is going to google for it, and then find out.

It's fair to be clueless, but not even googling a name before deciding to use it for your project is foolish.

They may have no idea, but if they go searching that they may find out if they’re unlucky.

#17I would never even open a project's site with this name

#18Name aside (feeds, get it?), I think the idea is cool. Your feed becomes a publicly accessible page you can share with anyone or access without having to log in.
There are just two features I would need to use this as a serious feed reader, though:
1. Autodetection of RSS feeds on pages. Some websites, such as YouTube, have feeds with cryptic URLs, so it's annoying to maintain a list of those links. I instead keep a list of YouTube account URLs and let the reader find the corresponding RSS link when I paste it in.
2. Subcategories. With Vore, you would have to create a new account for each collection of feeds in order to separate them.

Well. Somehow (or for some reason), GIMP managed to get away with it.
Though, the next crudest software name which comes to mind is "Git".

I would not be afraid to google those though.
