I think the whole Kaibokan debate was that this type of vessels were a very japanese-y thing, unlike cruisers, destroyers, aircraft carriers and whatnot whose concepts are/were very much present in many fleets worldwide.

I don't think they need a rename. Coastal Defense Ships is self-explanatory enough without causing problems of nomination exclusivity.
