Hi,

I would default to the name of the tool.  Lat Lon. This way, we can more easily remember. 

As a side note, being dyslexic (and getting stuff like left and right wrong 25% of the time!), I always like when I also see things like N, W or x,y or row col, besides lat Lon in the GUI just to get additional visual cues as to what i’am processing.
