- devnullbrain 4y agoThe mirror to this argument is that company names should also be descriptive. Goodbye Amazon, hello OnlineBookStore.
- stared 4y agoThere is plenty of successful companies with descriptive names. Facebook, IBM, BMW (Bayerische Motoren Werke), Grammarly, Duolingo, OpenAI, etc, etc. Personally, I prefer this approach. When a company gets big, it does not matter. If something is small, at least I get a f---ing clue what it does (and it is easier to memorize).
