Just call it the World Cup 2022.
Of course the broadcasts will have ironclad contracts that spell out what can and can't be shown.

Remember when (I believe it was Eriksen) was fined 100,000 euro at EURO 2012 because he lifted up his shirt to wipe his sweat and his underwear band was visible. Unapproved sponsor. They keep a tight lid on that.

It's not like the word Qatar is offensive. But I think no matter if you choose to boycott or not, the human rights abuses and grotesque wastefulness of this tournament should continue to be talked about throughout.
