Under the 15th century heading, "Piri", the cartographer who prepared the top map among the sample maps shown there, would be a good name.
Or maybe, "Orbis" and "Battista" under the 16th century heading.
So Piri Maps, Orbis Maps, Battista Maps, etc.
Orbis makes me think of something sciency like the earth is in orbit or an orb. I like that
battista is long and would often be spelled wrong. Piri and Orbis are fine, but Orbis sounds better and starts with an O XD
Note that there is a university library software called orbis, but well you cant avoid that
