Honestly "dark photons" makes zero sense. If they're photons they're excitations of the EM quantum field, if they're of some other field they're just a different particle. I guess it could mean they're from a massless field, like photons and unlike regular dark matter (whatever that is).

Yeah but we can't call them dark energy because we already have that and it's a different thing.

If it was written by Senku Ishigami, sure.
