Since E is, by definition, the force per unit charge that increases
its kinetic energy, then I don't see how creating a name for E when
the charge is static and another for when it is moving helps. They are
both the same - A measurement of the force on a charge that increases
its kinetic energy. Perhaps by "Electrokinetic E" you mean the E that
arises from the complex interaction of the sources and responses
propagating with a finite velocity C which is too complicated to model
fundamentally.
