No they shouldn't. They should stay the same name. These applications 
don't change to gonsole, gonqueror, gate, etc when they are run under 
Gnome.

"Konsole" etc work as names because they already start with a hard-C 
sound, so its just a cute spelling pun: "console" sounds exactly the 
same as "konsole".

But "tonsole" sounds like the organ at the back of your throat, the 
tonsil.

And let's be realistic: TDE is not precisely a popular desktop. Sad but 
true. Somebody looking for help with "Tmail" is going to find very 
little information unless Google is clever enough to say "Did you mean 
Kmail?" The existing names have worked fine for many years, let's not 
break what isn't broken.
