The problem with small, medium, large naming is that they don't last. In a few years our names would have to advance to labels like giant, behemoth, gargantua. This is different than clothing, where we know that in five years humans will be most the same size as today.
As a point of comparison, GPT-3 was launched in a series of small, medium, large, and XL. Back then, XL meant a mere 1.3 billion parameters!

You wouldn't - you would just put the version before it - 6.1 Small, 6.0 Medium etc. Not that complex.
Think of an iPhone 18 Pro - No need for 'iPhone 18 Even Better Super Pro' because the 'Pro' is relative with the version/generation.
