I like having Skeptic or Skepticism in the name of that forum. It makes it clear, given it's not exactly about Psi, or ID, or NDEs. It's a place for people - especially those who might associate themselves with organized skeptic movements -  to debate the very existence of these phenomenon (among others), which I think is different than Alternative Views which debates things in the context that something about the physicalist-leaning paradigm(s) is wrong but there are varied possible answers. [One can debate things such as MWI in Alternative Views as well, as the debate isn't related to parapsychology necessarily.]

It also makes it easier for people who don't want to be involved in the "does this stuff even exist?" debates to avoid that forum.

As I was reading that post, I was thinking maybe it should just be called "Does Psi exist?". Then I came to the last paragraph.

I don't think "Does this stuff even exist?" would be a bad title at all. Maybe it's just a bit too informal.
