A330 KC Mk 1?

I can't see the point of making up a different name to add to the model number; it wasn't done for the VC10 or HS125. Even if the RAF give it a name, it will always be known as the A330 because that's what the rest of the world call theirs.

Does anyone else remember it initially being touted as having the A340 centre-body gear to alleviate ACN/PCN issues? Or am I just dreaming?
