I would add my name to support keeping the name as it is. I find it is extremely confusing when organisations I belong to change into something else, and feel the name is part of their history and identity. I am not at all the same person I was 40 years ago yet I have the same name, and there is some continuity. You can evolve and change but there must be something to maintain the identity or nobody will know who you are or where you have come from. Government bodies like the current Natural England are the worst at this.
Could there be 'chapters' in membership relating to specific areas? If there is interest, they may grow.
