No they shouldn't. They should stay the same name. These applications
don't change to gonsole, gonqueror, gate, etc when they are run under
Gnome.
"Konsole" etc work as names because they already start with a hard-C
sound, so its just a cute spelling pun: "console" sounds exactly the
same as "konsole".
But "tonsole" sounds like the organ at the back of your throat, the
tonsil.
And let's be realistic: TDE is not precisely a popular desktop. Sad but
true. Somebody looking for help with "Tmail" is going to find very
little information unless Google is clever enough to say "Did you mean
Kmail?" The existing names have worked fine for many years, let's not
break what isn't broken. Kate -> Take or
Konsole -> Tonsole or
Konqueror -> Tonqueror,
Yes, it's true,
Why the applications keep the letter "K" as KDE ?
It should be "T" as Trinity.
Twrite, Tedit, Tview, Tmail, Tonqueror...
