Not sure if this discussion is still ongoing, but...
It seems to me that something that means "rationality" should be in there, and probably a word that means "institute".
Some words are to be avoided, like 'belief', which carry weird connotations. Weird-sounding is probably bad ("Mensa" sounds too weird to lots of people). English words are probably best. Being tied to a person's name is hardly ever a good idea.
