"fsck" is also distinctly non-gendered and it is not dated. It's actually kind of clever because it's not in the least an obvious name for a filesystem check, of all things.

"Bro" is painfully obvious, gendered, and dated. It comes from a rather specific subculture/zeitgeist.

Yes, I realize I'm bikeshedding. No, I'm not proud. Yes, it's hard to come up with good names.
