I think it is more about the numbers game. Basically there is a pattern
that has been established by developers who have chosen to end their
apps names with mm. Your app falls outside of the pattern so it may be
confusing for people who come across it to learn that it is not adhering
to the pattern.
An analogy could be a sushi restaurant called "Bobs meat extravaganza".
Technically they do serve some meat in the restaurant but it's probably
going to be confusing for those who like to consume copious amounts of beef.
