OpenStreetMap is the registered trademark of OSM Foundation, and they ask to please don't use mixed and confusing names like some of these for related projects. From the Trademark Policy:

You may not:

abbreviate the wordmarks, combine them with other words (“OpenStreetMapThing”), or substitute words in the mark (“OpenStreetThing” or “OpenThingMap”), especially where the new combination sounds similar to OpenStreetMap.

While they usually allow the use for open projects, it would be just easier to respect the request of the Foundation.

Sorry for copying my comment from the other thread, but it could help others here as well.
