Perhaps the renaming should be more radical, to indicate the extent of
the change.

I suggest "second", to commemorate "Second City" in Chicago, another
famous comedy troupe.  The Python3 (that is, Second) version of IDLE
could be DICK, after Andy Dick, an alumnus who somewhat resembles Eric
Idle, or perhaps MURRAY, after Bill Murray.
