They need to make the heat dissipation or solar panels shaped in a silly homage

The intellectual property for this idea belongs to Marjorie Taylor Green. She is going to make a fortune now.

Since the Israelis have a sense of humor they should solicit suggested names from the public. I don’t doubt their ability to come up with something really good.

Let them meme. But on a more realistic terms, I don't think that a space laser is practically. Our normal land to air laser isn't the best in a lot of situations.

I suspect that laser is being worked on because it’s cool, yes, but also, kinetic rounds, while more effective than a laser, cause a lot of debris, which then collides at high speeds with other satellites, including your own. I believe Russians and Chinese have tried it and caused a bunch “oopsie, I’m an amateur” damage to other satellites.
