We should offer a simple pattern syntax so end users can customize the pattern the thread name is created with: eg Something like: Camel Thread ${counter} - ${name}. Where counter and suffix is dynamic parameters. The counter is an unique incrementing thread counter. And name is provided from the source which as a way to name thread, such as a seda endpoint uri.

EIP should mandate an ExecutorService

If the EIPS which leverages a ExecutorService, mandates its being created and passed to it, we can enforce creating/lookup the pool during route creation, which allows us to have the route information as well, so we know which routes creates which pools. By passing in null we loose this opportunity.
That is why all the EIP Processors should be refactored to have ExeuctorService as parameter. IN PROGRESS

Let Camel keep track of created pools

Using the DefaultExecutorServiceStrategy we can let Camel keep track of the created pools, and thus also it can shutdown those when CamelContext is shutting down. Then Camel is handling the lifecycle for the pools it creates. And if you pass in a thread pool from an external system then you manage that lifecycle. Camel will in those cases not shut it down.
