Angel Alliterative Appellations - a Plea

Remembering the Air Force's apparent liking for alliteratively-named aircraft types, I've been thinking of pleading for the designation "A400M" to be retained. "Abingdon" makes me publicise my wish ...
Of course it could also be called the "Accrington", in which case it'd be popularly known as "Stanley" ... and then there's "Aylesbury" for southern suburbanites, or "Ashford" for out-of-towners. 'Averfordwest might do as a far-out monicker???
Seriously, and Pur-leeze, people, let's leave it as it is, pur-leeze ...

PS. "Grizzly" ?????
