Comment (by dd32):

 You can change the name of the plugin, just can't change it's slug.

 I'd really like to see the submission form ask for more than a zip though,
 with the possibility for reviewers to alter the slug prior to approval (to
 remove obviously not-acceptable-things).

 The slug could be auto-generated from the plugin name, with an optional
 edit (like the Slug edit in wp-admin)

 > Plugin Name: [ My Super Awaesome Thinggi! ]
 > Requested Slug: [ awesome-thing ]
 > Description: [ Super Awesome thing is a widget that says I'm Awesome ]
 > Upload Zip / URL:
 >
 > [Request]
