Rashi gives a completely different reason for the name (she cooed to the  
newborns soothingly),  and says nothing about her "chutzpa" but only says  what 
her argument was, and that Amram conceded she was right.  He says  nothing 
about her tone of voice but only her logic and also her nevuah -- that  she 
foresaw that her parents would have another baby and that he would be the  goel.
