Rename Fire ants to "Spicy Boys"

The Issue

For a long time, Fire ants have been misrepresented as a species and are seen as a destructive and dangerous species, and this is partly due to their name, Fire ants. Fire is mostly seen as a dangerous destructive force and I don't want the fire ant's reputation to be tainted by this. I would like to rename the species of fire ants to something more positive, so I had Spicy Boys in mind. Spicy boys are much more up beat and less destructive sounding and does not taint the fire ants repuation.
