This is a bad take and it's annoying seeing it repeated so often. The NDP have already won an election in Alberta and was the only government in the last few decades to have their leader complete a full term. That gives them name recognition that no party other than the UCP has. Also regardless of what the official conservative party name is, they always have the word "conservative" in it and the signs are always blue, that's all they need. If the Alberta NDP changed their name that would probably just be a boost to some other party which would split the vote and ensure UCP dominance
