Other sites have asked a similar question. I was thinking of simply writing 中文 but I thought it might be interesting to ask others about it.
What name would you like for our chat room?

If we wanted to go with something Chinese, why not 聊天 or 中文聊天? However, I notice that both the Japanese and German sites still have English names for their chat rooms. Anybody know if that's a conscious choice or they just haven't gotten around to changing yet?
Why not name it after a famous (real or fictional) tea house or gathering place? Like "Mos Eisley" for SciFi SE. Or even some pun related like 河蟹 (river crab) for 和谐 (referring to Confucius-related philosophy of a harmonious society). Something meaningful -- in spirit of the name plaques that hang over temple/shop/inn entrances.
列: 捕语屋 (a play on the children's song 捕鱼歌)
I think we should do it like this:
Main chat for all things Chinese site-related should have an English name:
Chinese Language and Usage Chat
Chat room intended for PURE Chinese chat (very little English allowed) should have a Chinese name:
中文聊天室
Chat room for Chinese chat/discussion using English and Chinese + voice
中文会话室
If needed, dedicated chat room intended for Chinese culture/traditions discussion
Chinese Culture and Traditions Chat
