We currently pay for the Family plan as a couple so this will be good for us. I tried downgrading but it still doesn't appear for me.

Expect this name to change when Cisco comes at them for being too close to Cisco Duo.

I don't think that's how rules for naming things work

While "Cisco Duo" is not listed here:

The following is a list of Cisco's trademarks and registered trademarks in the United States and certain other countries. Please note, however, that this listing is not all-inclusive and the absence of any mark from this list does not mean that it is not a Cisco trademark.

Trademarks are exactly how rules for naming things works.

So Google Duo was replaced by Meet because of Cisco's trademark? One can just go and trademark all numbers?

This is also why Microsoft discontinued the Surface Duo. No one is safe from Cisco's trademark!
