Is the official name for openSUSE mascot chameleon "Geeko"? I find it irritating!

...The winners will get all the fame and a stuffed Geeko! So get your pencils/mice/brains ready ...
Looked up some old maling lists and found out that there was a vote and Geeko was chosen?!
If u take the word geek ("a peculiar or otherwise odd person, especially one who is perceived to be overly obsessed with one or more things including those of intellectuality, electronics, gaming, etc." ) and the word gecko ("Geckos are small to average sized lizards belonging to the family Gekkonidae" and put it togeather u get Geeko.
Thats all fine BUT:
Chameleons and geckos are not the same
