Not sure where the name "chess" came from (though easily determined) but it's not very descriptive is it? What alternative name would you suggest?

A famous trademarked board game "Try to mate me, dude". LOL

Thinking a bit shorter... 

Layers?

Decisions?

So much of the game, most, is what doesn't happen on the board!
