While names such as “Clone Trooper Commander” or “Clone Trooper Pilot” are technically acceptable, the overuse of the word both unnecessarily inflates name-length and causes search issues (namely, that the search term “Clone Trooper” yields results other than standard Clones). In my view, “Clone” is sufficient to ensure that all Minifigs are listed together, and that all can be found easily by searching.
