I have read it's also called "The Cassandra Metaphor", and since "metaphor" is something I feel sounds more positive than "syndrome", I'll opt for that naming convention.

Nice to know I've sparked a post idea. :)

"Casandra Metaphor" and "Cassandra Syndrome" do overlap but not completely. For those who feel the isolation and frustration of being right and then ignored I think "syndrome" is more accurate.

Of course for casual conversations like we had, "metaphor" is perfectly fine.
