Meta is more open ended than search.com. It could just as easily be a bar or art gallery as a $100 trillion dollar virtual empire. You are right that a great name can only take you so far, ultimately you have to have a competitive product.
Fortunately for Meta they already have a market leading VR product and a $10 billion annual budget to maintain that lead. As someone who has spent several thousand hours studying names and recently bought FB stock, I am delighted with the change.

Search would be a great name for a bar too. Generic industry terms make far more immediate sense when used outside the industry. Meta just feels like a company in 1999 naming itself "Internet." But, it doesn't matter because Facebook has the resources to make any bad idea stick.
