I didn't intend not to. I don't have a particular aversion to duplicate names,
although I realize that other people do.

I suppose. Either way, I don't really like it. :(

<grin>
Might as well just leave it as Propellor Housing.
Now, how about those plates with rotor holders? Let's see, those were...
3481.DAT Plate 2 x 2 with Helicopter Tail Rotor Holder
3462.DAT Plate 2 x 3 with Helicopter Rotor Holder
967.DAT Plate 4 x 8 with Helicopter Rotor Holder (needs work)
Should these be (to fit with your Propellor Housing with Brick suggestion):
3481.DAT Propellor Holder with Plate 2 x 2
3462.DAT Propellor Holder with Plate 2 x 3
967.DAT Propellor Holder with Plate 4 x 8 (needs work)
The "with Plate" notation seems so backwards. How about...
3481.DAT Propellor Plate 2 x 2 with Holder
3462.DAT Propellor Plate 2 x 3 with Holder
967.DAT Propellor Plate 4 x 8 with Holder (needs work)
Hmmm.... That doesn't do it, either. I'm about out of ideas, everyone else
feel free to express opinions. Please.
BTW, I am deliberately ignoring the Technic parts labeled as "rotor", because
they should stay in Technic.
