Hmm.  Sounds like "Netscape Communicator".

How about The Chat Program for Internet People, or TCPIP.

GCQ?  What does ICQ stand for, anyway? :)

Ideas could go along the lines of:
  - broadcasting, yelling, shouting etc
  - pick an acronym and put some words around it :) like GROQ, or
    GHONE (pun on phone).

Or stick two words together, like Gnommunicate.
