They could have just done what Nu52 did and drop the "Professor" part for the most time. Boom, Zoom 1, Zoom 2. Reverse-Flash is a bit too broad of a concept, IMHO, to be a single nickname.

But now ye generic net person thinks that the only Zoom is the black-suited guy from the show. Just google picture search Zoom and see for yourself. Giving Hunter his own name and costume makes him a unique villian. They already have super speed in common so they should be different in other ways.
