I think that the name is clear enough and fits his target audience. Almost any Star Trek nerd (myself included) will know where the name Vulcan comes from...

Non-nerds will be less inclined to jump at the Star Trek connection.

Keep in mind, I've never actually watched Star Trek (or Star Wars for that matter), but my mind goes immediately to either the Roman God or car tires that have been Vulcanized.
