I don't object to the name on cutesy grounds, but I do feel it's a bit long for a search engine . Hope if they hit the big time they can buy ddg.com or something :-) [Before anybody asks why am I typing URLs in the first place - I was prompted by HN to switch my searching to DuckDuckGo as an experiment (see what I mean! I had to type it right there!) and so if I am sitting in somebody else's browser and need to search, I need to type it in - it's not in anybody's search history, sadly]. Short names are not necessary for everything, but for search engines I think they are a good idea.
