See: http://www.adobe.com/misc/trade.html. Point 1 says "You may not incorporate or include Adobe trademarks in your company name, product name, domain name, or in the name of your service." We'll see if Mike comes back with anything different. Looks like the answer is no. See: http://www.adobe.com/misc/trade.html.

Of course Mike will know for sure. Two examples come to mind: FlashObject was recently changed to SWFObject and Screenweaver MX had to drop the MX portion. You can probably use something like Ant for Flex. Just based on what I’ve seen in recent years, you probably wont be able to use those names. Of course Mike will know for sure.
