I think that when this forum dies someone must create an article about systematic nomenclature.

Sounds nice for a chemist like me.
Is there a systematic nomenclature?

Yep. In GoL there are "cis-" or "trans-".
Like, this is a cis- queen bee shuttle:

With enough time on your hands, you could analyze random.rle. Is it possible to write a script for this sort of thing?

Looks like there could be a service for automatically assigning autogenerated names to big useless objects. You enter the RLE, press "Name it", and it quickly answers "cis-long^8-ladder-(1,3,17)-2357-3,11,4-frobnozzle" or something along the same lines.
