I'm not fussed on those ideas myself - if anything they could perhaps consider remaming it  <| Brisbane Central |>  rather than just Central.
What about "Brisbane CBD Station"?

The problem with that is that you're implying that it's the Brisbane CBD station, which is not correct. Roma Street is in the CBD, and in the future there will probably be a CRR station at the southern end of the city too.

I've seen QR and/or Translink call it Brisbane Central before, (I think it's actually called that on the rail network map) so that's actually still correct. "Central" is the convention / official name but I think they qualify that if it seems appropriate.

I wouldn't support changing it from Central...The historic facade has "Central" on it from memory,.

Change for the sake of change is simply a waste of effort.
The station has been known historicaly as Brisbane Central Station, it is central to Brisbane, end of story.
