Did it reproduce in its entirety? What was the name of this new life form?
No, they have not made a new life form, even if the single-celled organisms have evolved they are still single-celled and do not pass the criteria needed for evolutionary theory to proceed.

Yes.
Frank? Since when do we need to give a name to a creature in order for it to be multicellular?
I suspect that would be the response no matter what was presented.
For the natural example of simple green algae showing the transition from single-celled to multi-celled, Chlamydomonas is the single-celled form and Volvox is the most complex in the group; there are several intermediates as well. (Volvox are the algae that look like little soccer balls.)
Legion would be a cute name, and it’s even biblical.
And with a further (irrelevant) connection to things of being from the only direct Bible quote in one of the Hobbit movies.
