(or it could be a name for a mini-van). There is of course “The Shocker” or “The Electrocutor”, but those names might have marketing issues.

Or perhaps the Electrode (Cathode just doesn’t have as nice of a ring to it somehow).

I love this. Names to avoid:
Arc
Impedence
Inverter
Termination

If names didn’t have to be “shorted” these would be cool:
Harmonic Distortion
Load deLimiter
Neutral Ground Reactor
Transient Reinforced Ultra Core Kilowatt (TRUCK)

How about:
The Chrysler Three-Prong-Socket
The Kia AAA Battery (batteries not included)
The Toyota Transistor
