what is the deal with these startup company names that have nothing to do with anything the company does? they are just random single words with a logo directly representing that random word in a “cute” way. why not name the company sensible? or is the mentality truly temporary?
- aiiane 8y agoWell, it does avoid them needing to rebrand if they decide to pivot...
- frosted-flakes 8y agoThis is not new. Silly/arbitrary names for companies and products have always existed. Amazon, Git, Apple, BlackBerry, Whirlpool, and Bad Boy are all examples of this.
- kevsim 8y agoIn the case of Waffle, I always thought it was quite a clever name. Their product is a grid of issues. Waffles are a grid of little squares of deliciousness. Works for me.
