Every time you installed a new app to run under
wine you could create a new hard link for wine
which had the requisite name. Use that name to
start wine and hay presto that's the name in the ps listing.
Warning: be very careful when you update wine
that you keep the same inode number otherwise all
of the links will point to the old wine. Or give
yourself a directory like
/usr/local/bin/wineapps, put the links in there.
Put it on your PATH. Then when you update wine,
run a simple script to relink them to the new wine.
