I've been calling it CentOS Stream 8 and CS8. Our docker image is 'cs8-base' and our cloud image is 'CS8 <date>'. However, our Koji tags are '<tag>8s-<environment>' and the dist tags are 'el8s.*'. We had to make that consistency trade-off to not over-complicate some internal tools and to try to reduce the chances of confusing Koji tag 'cern8' with 'cerns8'.
