sat-tracker isn't the most exciting name, and talking about "satoshi numbers" isn't great either. I'd like to come up with a slightly sexy name for the project, and a way of referring unambiguously to a satoshi's number. For the former, I have no idea, but for the latter I was thinking about calling them "ordinals" or "ordinal numbers". An ordinal number denotes the position of an item within a set, so seems perfect for this, which identifies the order in which a satoshi was created. The word "ordinal" isn't used anywhere else in Bitcoin, so it isn't ambiguous.
