Why has V Australia changed name ?

I can sort of answer that myself - to align more with the other Virgin brands.
What I am really curious about is How can they ? I thought SQ had forbidden any further use of the Virgin name on airlines but I see that V Australia is now called Virgin Australia,

I understood that that clause with SQ had a time term on it. It expired, rebranding became possible.

SQ now allow the use of the name internationally so Virgin Blue, Pacific Blue V Australia are now all named Virgin Australia. Polynesian Blue has been renamed as Virgin Samoa.

SQ are now also Virgin Australia frequent flyer partners and have reciprocal lounge access.

CFWV - Does than mean VS Gold card holders can use Virgin Australia/Virgin Blue lounges now?

Thanks

Yes, my wife and I recently used the Virgin Australia lounge in Melbourne.
