I like such variant even though "orgdown" sounds better. Another one:

"text/org" ("slash" may be omitted in speech) as file format for Org 
Mode (as application).

If you can not survive without a pun and funny formatting, then

- "orgless" to emphasize that it lacks power of Org Mode.
- "org<1" to denote compatibility levels.

JSON format is not really human-friendly (in comparison e.g. to YAML), 
but the following representation of compatibility data for web-related 
technologies is great:
https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data

Recently I have noticed a number of issues with Org renderer at GitHub. 
I have not checked bugtracker of the ruby project (feel free to forward 
this list to the developers). I am unsure concerning appropriate 
compatibility level but it is annoying that verbatim text inside link 
description is not recognized.

- =[[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1621763][Bug 1621763: 
[flatpak] native messaging support missing]]=
   square brackets inside link description breaks parsing of whole link
   (outer brackets, target, and description are shown).
- Verbatim text as whole description is not recognized,
   markers are shown
   =[[https://orgmode.org][=org-capture=]]=, the same for =~code~=.
   ~[[help:org-refile][=C-u C-c C-w= ~org-refile~]]~.
   =\u200B= zero-width space inside brackets does not help.
- "info:" links are not converted to HTML ones.
- Footnotes and ~[fn:text]~ links are not supported.
- ~src_elisp{(server-start)}~ appears literally.
- =#+caption:= before =#+begin_example= block is not supported
   and absent in HTML output.
- =#+attr_html: :alt= for images is not supported.
- ~="* %(org-get-x-clipboard 'CLIPBOARD)"=~ ("=" and everything inside
   without outer "~") is not recognized as verbatim.
