There's no official reason given for why they changed the character name to Snarl instead of Slag, although it's theorized that Hasbro finally discovered that 'slag' is somewhat rude slang in Britain.
I remember when my dad, who worked as a civil engineer at a sewage treatment plant, found out there's a TF named 'Sludge'. He laughed pretty hard, because of course that's what they called the liquid crap.
