I didn't know until this moment that Marvel had changed Spider Gwen's name to "Ghost Spider". As much as it makes sense in-universe; it's dumb to ditch branding that's been in place for years.

I don't think her actual in-universe game was ever Spider-Gwen (secret identity what secret identity) . That was just how readers knew her. I'm just not sure how much time passed between her introduction and us getting her spider name.

It was a little confusing cuz there has been a ghost spider before which was a what if with peter taking the mantle of the ghost rider haha. And this pic is great! she looks so cute and happy

Normally I'd agree with you. But I've always wondered if using Spider-GWEN would give away her secret identity. If mazinja is right about Spider-Gwen not being used in public, then perhaps it's time she did get a proper public name.

Okay, then, I completely agree with you. But the worst rebranding is when they change entire plotlines, like having Peter Parker and Mary Jane never being married just because the powers-that-be decided that Spider-man should never be happy. That "because-we-said-so" attitude (and that comics cost $4 each by then) is what made me give up comics. Except for yours.

"Ghost Spider" just makes me think she should be a Spirit of Vengeance. Spider-Gwen is still the better name.
