IMHO the FAQ is an informal document like email or wiki pages. It should use
whatever the maintainer feels most comfortable with (and use it consistently).
There should be an FAQ entry explaining the relationship. Effectively a
second-entry-per-document rule, not second-entry-per-paragraph.
The manual and reference are part of the source base and should consistently
use the same name as the rest of the source.
