I’ve been pondering for some time but would prefer a more appropriate name for the group
You can't change the group name only the display name, so you are stuck with !artporn@lemm.ee - you might as well just go with it now. Most people will understand it's not for porn but part of the larger "porn" family of communities.
Going from your sidebar, how about art gallery?

Keep it as it is. This is how I found it and it's fitting.

Definitely don’t change it. The name is a major attractor for people looking for this kind of sub. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Removing indexing from everything is an Antipattern:
by forcing everybody to choose between
-
CONTINUOUSLY SPAMMED ABOUT EVERYTHING, IN THE HOPES OF CATCHING THE TINY PERCENTAGE THEY CARE ABOUT, xor
-
blocking ALL notifications about new-items in a community
ISN'T TheRightAnswer(tm).
Lemmy & Reddit both got that wrong..
( all the gaming stuff should have been under r/Gaming & c/Gaming, e.g, so interested people could go there, & uninterested people could just mute that entire tree of communities )
I'm not caring how the formatting is done ( hyphens, dots, underscores, alternative-hairstyles, whatever ),
but some consistent means of identifying the nature, and the subset, of a community, would be welcome by many people, in the information-deluge world we inhabit.
Just a thought, please let consensus settle it, not some random autistic, eh?

That'll never work. Say for instance there was a fan fiction community for The Last of Us; is this a gaming community, a TV show community, or a literature community? Really it's all of the above, so you have to use a more awkward name to fit into one category that doesn't even fully describe the community.
No, if you want to categorise communities like that it shouldn't be done through the name. You'll need to build a separate tag or label system instead, allowing communities to properly identify with multiple tags.
