If we want to be consistent shouldn't we rename it to wal_fpws? FTR I don't like much either version.
Since FPW is an acronym, plural form reads better when you are using uppercase (such as FPWs or FPW's); thus, I prefer singular form because parameter names are lowercase. Function description will clarify that this is "number of WAL full page writes".
