how heavily modified does a hud need to be from the original hud to be called something different and new?

for example, here is my rayshud

You can opt for a compromise and call it something like rayshud violet or rayshud RainoofLight

Off topic, how can you change the colour of the Team Fortress 2 logo in the main menu? I know it has something to do with vtf files but when I tried it all I got was a black square.

Really you have to be able to tell the difference between the hud that you used as a foundation and the changes. Basically to the point where it isn't simple customization. For example:

ThimbleHUD:

YaHud:

Although this is a bad example thimble did a lot more in his screenshots.

I honestly consider a HUD its own when the creator started basically from scratch, and didn't just make modifications to an already finished HUD.

Pretty much the best way to look at your question.

most people are nice enough to say what the base is when they make their hud, but its tf2, no one will give a fuck, literally everything in any hud i have ever made was based off some one elses design

If you replace every piece of a boat, just make your own fucking boat and stop taking credit for your shitty carbon-copy HUDs.

if it goes to bed on time and eats all its vegetables it will grow up to be a big strong hud in no time

and this.

take cp_badlands for example. now picture you changing mid and spire. is it now your map..? no, it's an altered badlands.
no shame in making mods, though. and yours looks good :-)
