Rename the module to "For Example"

Problem/Motivation

The In Other Words module presents lists of items in a more grammatical way and condenses sequential lists into shorter text. However, the project name, in other words, is an idiom used to introduce a statement that repeats what has been said in a different and usually a simpler or more exact way. It is commonly abbreviated as "i.e."

"She said the movie was a bit predictable." "In other words, she didn't like it."

A more appropriate phrase to name the project is, "For example." Abbreviated as, "e.g." which precedes list of items. Since the (currently named) In Other Words module presents lists of items, and "For example" is used for lists of items, the project should be called "For Example."

    This was a terrible name suggestion only suggested to mildly troll Ben. In Other Words is actually one of my favorite module names. Long live In Other Words!
