I am strongly against the idea of a third name for parts like this.

I agree.  Keep in mind, once the LDraw part becomes official, Peeron typically
updates their database to use the LDraw name.

What do you think, should I pick the Peeron name or the name used in Bricklink?

Peeron name: Brick 2 x 2 with Red Dot Pattern
Bricklink name: Brick, Decorated 2 x 2 with Dot Red on One Side Pattern

I'd go with the Peeron name, because it's simpler.  Unless there's another 2x2
brick with a dot on multiple sides...

Not any that I know of.

I'm afraid I wasn't clear enough in my question. Those "names" you quote are
what I call "descriptions". It's good to harmonize them too, of course. But the
differences are not as confusing as different part numbers are. But I mean the
file name (=part number). 3003pb06 or 3003px6? Or a third, exactly following the
LDraw naming conventions?

(The description conventions are much closer in Peeron and LDraw compared to BL
and LDraw.)
