It's important to remember the "The Voynich Manuscript" is just a nickname used for convenience. But there's no way, at this point, that any other nickname could be adopted. The manuscript is one of the most famous medieval objects in the world, known worldwide as The Voynich Manuscript. That's won't ever change. But in formal publication, it should always be referred to at least once by its formal name, Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library MS 408. Or, even more properly, "Yale University, Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library MS 408"
It would be like trying to call the Book of Kells by another nickname. Won't ever happen.
Newbold calls it "the Voynich manuscript" in his 1921 essay in addition to calling it "the Voynich cipher manuscript" and "the Voynich Bacon manuscript".
