Thinking again I guess that option disqualifies itself cause of Apple's 
Numbers, right?

Personally I would suggest to choose a name that stays close to our goal 
to have a "standard-name" like Words or Stage that by itself is not a 
brand but should be only used in combination with our common Calligra 
brand. So, e.g. "Calligra XYZ" rather then "XYZ" where XYZ is not 
something that has a strong stand (means an own strong name like e.g. 
Calligra or KSpread had). I also would suggest to not add a K-prefix or 
some other 1-2 letter shorty-combination.

Some more brainstorming;
* Calligra Worksheet
* Calligra Compute
* Calligra Count
* Calligra Evaluation / Eval
* Calligra Value
* Calligra Calculation / Calc
* Calligra Proceed
* Calligra Accounting / Account
* Calligra Fiscal
* Calligra Budget
* Calligra Arithmetic
* Calligra Bill
* Calligra Invoice
* Calligra Costing
