I really like "upb"! Thanks everyone for your suggestions. Yes, it's annoying that preview doesn't work correctly on this blog. Sorry about that. I think it's a bug in the style I'm using, but I've never taken the time to really dive in and figure out what's wrong. Ooh, I think we may have a winner. I really like “upb”!

It's short to be used as identifiers prefix, it's general, it denotes is a PB implementation and it denotes it is minimal. The only drawback is googleability, there are 365000 hits to upb, but even not being perfect, is not that bad either =) My pic would be upb (u meaning micro).
