Another vote for prioritizing a name change. Why create continual confusion and awkwardness for the thousands of people who will want to use your product alongside Sketch the design app? (That's me saying this is an awesomely useful project, BTW.)

I'm just imagining describing the Sketch/Sketch workflow to a non-technical manager... ;)

How about calling it "Expo Studio" or "Expo Easel", which have similar connotations?

"Expo Easel" Sounds really good! Nice job.

Thanks, naming/branding is a bit of a hobby of mine.

One thing about the name, however, that for me now rules it out as a recommendation, is that the two words are not articulated by a consonant; the ending vowel of "Expo" blends into the beginning of "Easel".

An unfortunate pairing, at least to my ear, that when spoken quickly sounds like "Expo Weasel" :)

Colloquially, you'd probably just refer to it as Easel.

It could also be called Expo Clip. Then can say "clips" to refer to saved scripts.
