- trollied 2y agoIt really isn't though. Any native English speaker is going to see Hunt Lie.
- cabinguy 2y agoConfirmed. I immediately read “hunt lie.”
- emmanueloga_ 2y agoIn the context of discovering brand-new companies, it does come across as somewhat ironic. Maybe consider the "Kodak recipe" for an alternative? [1]: "Keep it short, easy to pronounce, and avoid similarities to existing names or associations." (short is harder in 2024 though!) I'm on the fence on whether the name should have meaning. There are plenty of successful companies on either side. -- 1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodak#Name https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodak#Name

- stared 2y agoI am not a native speaker, but the very first thing I saw was "Hunt Lie". It conveyed the message "Product Hunt, but for scam". "Huntly", maybe?

- joenot443 2y agoWhat you've linked is a site for human names, not product names. English has funny cases where readers will implicitly pronounce personal names differently than they might products or brands.
