We've got at least one physicist in our corner:

"Hestenes is adamant about calling this mathematical approach “geometric algebra” and its extension “geometric calculus,” rather than referring to it as “Clifford algebra”."

Unfortunately, this should really be called algebraic geometry, but that name is already taken by another field...



Come on, switching geometric algebra and algebraic geometry makes no difference.
