In my estimation, Dennis van engelsdorp, being the first to investigate the problem would certainly have had a great influence in the naming rights for the disorder.  I suspect you would not get any one person in the ccd working group to make a claim of being the first to coin the term.  But I will make a point to ask Dennis this question during my next queen permit inspection.
