Re: Specific questions about Linnaea/Linnéa
I had never heard of Carl Linnaeus or his Systema Naturae, though I don't exactly follow botany that closely.I think if his beliefs bother you and are closely associated in your mind with the name, then yes that would be reason enough not to use the name.I think the name Linnaea sounds lovely, but I'll admit learning about its origin does taint the impression of it somewhat.
