Actually it usually does follow. But I'll accept I shorthand conflated
three questions:

a) What to do about Linux Australia's brand recognition or lack thereof
b) Whether the name reflects the community
c) Whether the name reflects the role of the organisation.

To these questions I'd answer:

a) Rebrand and rebuild
b) Probably not (survey says...)
c) If you see the role of the organisation as putting on LCA then yes
otherwise it's a no.

Regards

James
