I find that team names change more frequently than responsibility in a large org. Also using a team name makes people assume ownership of decisions with that team. That's why I prefer service name. However I haven't thought much about shared use clusters.

We've had the same name for the past 7 years, so going by the future estimates with no extra useful information, I expect us to have the same team name for 7 more years :P

Makes things easy for you then. My company, every manager hire decides to change team names. Had a vp who used to be marketing that changed the org name like 4 times in 2 years. Cause name changes fix everything. Essentially we have a few teams / orgs with name of the week.
