"Recent notable deaths" (or "notable recent deaths") might be a tad better (to avoid people listing their cat), but yes, I think a rename to get rid of the C-word is a good idea.
Some animals are celebrities, and I don't think marking their deaths along with human deaths demeans the latter in the slightest.

 Celebrity Deaths - On Celebrity, Public Deaths in a Death-Denying Culture
The rise of celebrity also corresponds with a public increasingly devoid of total relationships with others, individuals' connectedness with others and the broader society dampened by the anonymity of urban life, reduced civic involvements, increasing rates of singlehood and living alone, and by the instrumental relationships demanded by the workplace and marketplace.
Further amplifying appetites for celebrities' stories is the new personality type populating the social landscape, characterized by sociologist David Riesman as being "other-directed," relying on others to define one's own lifestyles and beliefs— particularly those publicly identified as living more interesting, glamorous, or important lives.
The immortal cultural status of these celebrities who died prematurely is reflected by the fact that, like the Catholic Saints their memories are honored on their death days and not birthdays.

This presentation completely obscures the overall death totals, since the periods across which the daily average is being computed can no longer be read from the graph.
