The same, they will both be called Avast and AVG.

Avast will get AVG's amazing IDP and zero-day components and AVG will get Avast's amazing CyberCapture, Hardened Mode, Fast Scanning Speed and Fast Removal Speed 😉

They will also share virus signatures, meaning both AVG and Avast users will be more secure.
