My 2 cents:

For these particular commands, I think it's fine to change their name.
I suspect only a few people would use them, and they won't have much
trouble finding the new command (or asking here if not).

I would prefer the set and show commands to be consistent, but that's
only a very mild preference based purely on aesthetics.

I like this one better.

> maint gnu-debug -> set debug gnu (, gnu-nat, gnu-hurd, gnu-whatever, ...)
> show debug gnu

I like this one better.
