In this case it would be even better "Quillotine", because the library was Qt
based. And the word exists!

Anyway, thanks to everybody for the naming brainstorm. Finally a decision was
made.
The library formerly known as "aseqmm" [1] has changed its name. The new name
is "drumstick" (drumroll was already taken).
The new name seems appropriate for a tool to play music, because it (the name)
was cooked with flames and it is a word that still has some ambiguity. Also,
in colloquial Spanish "montar un pollo" means "to kick up a fuss".
A PD icon has been adopted as a logo image:

[1] latest public release:

Pedro
