I think its quite a poor choice for web framework name ;-)

Since it's a web framework, how about "Web Assembly" instead? Oh wait...

But it would sound really sexy to be able to say that "I've build that using Assembly" :)

If you want to be able to say that, you should actually do that: https://asm32.info/fossil/repo/asmbb/artifact/68f9999f296320...

Also, this is a terrible, horrible name, seriously.

I'm pretty sure there there is scant Assembly language content in Assembly.

Picking a short, unused name related to the project is hard.

Not really?

Literally throwing a dictionary on the floor and pointing would work. Or checking whether the name is being used via a 2-sec google search? People avoid start companies with the same name as other companies -- it's not that hard.

In this case, what about Fett? Flask + (D)jango Fett

You may have missed "related", although I suppose use of the Roman alphabet sort of counts.
