Since most of the Marlinpike models are named for the Marine industry, it might be cool to think of this one as having a Sacking-Needle and naming it for the agricultural farming industry... the fact that it is Aqua in color is just more SAK naming irony, but only makes sense because all the Marine models were red.  Anyway just some thoughts.

I still like the idea of a Prairie Rancher, etc! An agricultural theme seems to fit this knife. A "sacking needle" (aka marlinspike) is a common use item in an agricultural setting.

I will go and hide now... thank you

Actually I agree with you, did you see 'Prairie Rancher' made the short list.  There is a strong case for 'Boatswain' as well though; besides those already stated, I think we need a SAK with a more sophisticated name like this, but maybe this model is not the Mr. Sophisticate I'm lookin' for.

Both Boatswain and Prairie Rancher sound like names a SAK should have. One I could think of is Homesteader, a bit of pioneering farming/ranching that is very much a DIY affair.
There's no such thing as "Too pretty to carry".  There's only "Too pretty NOT to carry"...... >:D

I still like Boatswain, as I like consistency with the whole Nautical theme of the Marlinspike knives. Quartermaster is another good nautical name, FWIW.
