Since Loki is a relatively generic name used for many different things,
personally I think no one package should use the unqualified name. For
example the Loki C++ library distinguishes itself as loki-lib. The name
loki-database seems a good choice for the software you are packaging.

Since Grafana was in Debian before and was removed due to being
orphaned, outdated and RC-buggy, please note the extra steps required
when reintroducing packages; base your new package on the latest
version of the old package (such as from the old now archived VCS),
unarchive/reopen and triage bugs closed by the removal and reopen and
triage security issues closed by the removal.
