Definitely, do you want a name pinned on us from elsewhere.
A location identifier in there would help easy recognition by others.

Definitely an Australian grouping overall, then divide on state lines due to
numbers and distance. It's better than forming in each state and trying to
join up afterwards. A national group would give more strength/influence in
the activities we want to embark upon.

I'm sure someone from the ACT isn't going to quibble with a NSW moniker,
it's not like they have a team in crickets' Putrid Milk Cup.

We definitely need a national group to try and generate interest in the
Lugnet threadbare states (SA,WA,TAS).
I'm fine with both the following.
