Please consider renaming this project

I've had a structured logging library for more than 2 years named Maple. https://github.com/Randgalt/maple
I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Do you believe that you will reactivate your project in the near future? I want to take some time to consider the name and the possible options so I don't clash with any other project. Naming is hard and if this is too much of a problem for you I'll have to decide on something sooner, so at least I want to understand what are my options to move forward.
Furthermore, given the terseness of your message, I can't really understand your feelings regarding this unfortunate coincidence, so it is difficult for me to assess the urgency and importance of solving this matter.
Thanks in advance
My project is not inactive. I’m not angry or anything but, if the situation was reversed, I’d immediately rename. Your project is new and it doesn’t seem like a burden on you.
It is not a burden and I am not opposing to rename.
I understood your project was inactive because its last commit was over two years ago.
All I want is to understand whether this is a pressing issue - that you expect me to rename immediately - or if I have time to look for an alternative so I don't clash with other existing software and I can pick a name that I understand it to be both meaningful and to sound nice.
I don't want to rename the project to oak, then find out another project has the same name, then end up renaming this to birch.
Not pressing at all and totally up to you. Thank you.
Thank you as well. I'll close this issue once I find the appropriate name to replace.
Thank you - this was very nice of you.
