Also with the way they conducted Arrow not having any superpowers and Flash is introducing Metahumans from a failed scientific experiment I feel like this universe is more like real life because we don't have any super powered people.

How about a name that includes "origins". These two shows are their origin stories pre-JL. DCOrigins-Verse? Or something like that. Smallville was an origin story as well so it won't conflict. Or RLDCOrigins. (RL being Real Life) Only thing is I don't like all the capital letters mixed with lower case origins. Looks weird. What do you all think about incorporating "origins" or "real Life"
 * Neither of those names make sense. Firstly, the shows aren't their origins, the shows chronicle their adventures as solo heroes. We don't even know if a Justice League incarnation will see the light in the "Arrowverse".


 * Secondly, you kinda contradicted yourself. How you said that the Flash is introducing Metahumans, yet you also said the show resembles real life as it doesn't have any super powered characters. The Flash himself is a super powered character.

Which are some of the reasons that neither of those names would work. Other than that, the names are clunky, and wouldn't work well with Search Engine Optimization.
 * Third of all, yes Smallville was Clark Kent before he was the hero known as Superman. That was an actual pre-origin story, the same with Gotham. Arrow and The Flash on the other hand don't have the "no tights, no flight" rule.
 * 1) It's not real life just because it has realistic situations pertaining to how the characters receive their powers.
 * 2) And neither Arrow nor The Flash are origin stories persay.
