Yes, Push-Push could work. (I think I prefer leaving the hyphen in.)

I don’t think they are more beautiful, but for Norwegian, we have the 
following words meaning ‘push’ (imperative form):

Skuv
Skyv
Skubb (usually a more sudden push)
Dytt (usually a softer push)
Puff (softer, usually using only one hand)

BTW, the kde-games-devel list probably isn’t *that* heavily populated, 
so you might consider creating a blog post (planet.kde.org) or a post at 
https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/ asking for suggestions about a new name 
for the game.
