  Shell was originally very literal though. They sold seashells. > The "Shell" Transport and Trading Company (the quotation marks were part of the legal name) was a British company, founded in 1897 by Marcus Samuel, 1st Viscount Bearsted, and his brother Samuel Samuel. Their father had owned an antique company in Houndsditch, London, which expanded in 1833 to import and sell seashells, after which the company "Shell" took its name. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_plc https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_plc
