You could always go for humor. The "Prawn" of District 9 were so named due to their similarity to a type of grasshopper, which unfortunately ended up being the same as a common name for shrimp. You could opt to reverse this and, considering the invading nature of your aliens, call them Locusts. This also brings to mind Biblical prophecies - the Ϝ might determine John was actually being contacted by them when he wrote Revelations, but got it wrong due to ineptitude and/or the Age of Aquarius having not yet begun.

Of course, using Prawn is still entirely appropriate, so go with what you like better.
