I wonder if "Saint Lucian Creole" is the right name. Per Wikipedia it is a language spoken in Dominican / Martinican / Saint Lucian and ethnologue.com name it Lesser Antillean French Creole.

The ISO 639 main site says "Saint Lucian Creole French".

The translator in translatewiki also said that it's the Saint Lucian language.

I'd call it "Saint Lucian Creole" in English. If anyone insists on including "French" in the name so as to be fully consistent with ISO 639, I won't object too strongly, but I think that it's not so necessary in general, and can be confusing in practice: when people will search for French in ULS, they'll find this language, too.
