I don't think that it's reasonable to have a name that says "Wiki" but not "Pedia". We are not the only Wiki around, nor the original, and I don't relish the prospect of one day, when we're famous, explaining to people that "Wiki" does not mean just Wikipedia.
My vote is for "PediaWiki". We now have "PediaWiki version 3". ("3" as in "3.0", except that we're far beyond just 3.0 by now.)
I would be very careful about using any words beginning with "pedia-" or anything similar. The Greek root for this relates to children, and even the slightest inadvertant suggestion that the name could have anything at all to do with kiddy-porn may bring a whole lot of unwanted traffic.
I wouldn't like to be a paediatrician if things are as bad as you suggest, then ;). I don't think paedophiles find their preferred internet sites through googling for "pedia". Just can't see it myself. I don't see that calling something pediawiki is going to get any "unwanted" traffic, frankly...you're a bit too worried I think :)
