Consistency with Rutherford and Curie engines which should be done as they are both engines made by
Rocket Lab.
Tldr, trying to create consistency with the article names Curie and Rutherford. Also open to any other ideas.

Comment I agree that these should have some degree of consistency, but unhelpfully I've got no clue as to what the best option would be. My preference would probably be for C as I've always predominantly heard the Rutherford referred to as the "Rutherford engine" instead of the "Rocketlab Rutherford", where your examples are much more common with their brand names (eg. Boeing 747, Samsung Galaxy) - but that probably creates inconsistency with wikipedia on a wider scale, so I'm not sure.

Comment The company itself refers to the engine as Curie and Rutherford - e.g. "Electron's second stage is powered by a variant of the Rutherford engine providing improved performance in vacuum conditions." ... "Rutherford is an oxygen/kerosene pump fed engine specifically designed in-house for Electron using an entirely new propulsion cycle. Its unique high-performance electric propellant pumps reduce mass and replace hardware with software."
https://www.rocketlabusa.com/electron/ I would suggest that the best article title would be Rutherford (rocket engine).
