The default name of the service is "Firebird Server - DefaultInstance"
(or "FirebirdServerDefaultInstance"), so no, the name will not always be
"FirebirdServerfirebird3".

The path of the service points to the firebird.exe because that is the
server executable. instsvc is only a tool to install the service
(instsvc => INSTall SerViCe)
