"<NAME>'s <ACTIVITY> Activity" was suggested by the designer of Sugar's UI and
one of its main programmers:

http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/3900
http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/3225

There is also a simple way activities could override this for a more
appropriate default than "Activity", like "Martin's Maze" (for Maze) or
"Martin's Write document" (for Write).  See ticket #3900 for the (old?) Browse
code.
