For outsiders smpl does not rellate to coccinelle.

I suggest to consistently use the name of the tool in all places.

So smpl directory to be named coccinelle
SPATCH named coccinelle
spatch.sh named coccinelle.sh
etc.

This way we use one name for one thing. And not today where you
use three names for the same thing.
The files may be named *.smpl - because their home in

    scripts/coccinelle/

will tell what they are used for.

[I regret that I used CHECK to name the sparse tool].
