Actually the A-36 guys wanted to call them Invaders.

But the attached article tries to address the Apache question.

Personally, I like the name "Invader" for the A-36. Different designation, different name. Even if that designation was budgetary legerdemain.
F-16 pilots call their ride "Vipers".

Aircraft bondo is very heavy. A neighbor's uncle worked for an airline and brought half of a can to his nephew for the kid's car. Much heavier than auto Bondo, however 200mph is not a requirement.
