As a german i find the name a bit unfortunate. To spritz = spritzen means to squirt/spray coat and in german is often associated with ejaculating. I don't know if this name would fly around here, but maybe thats why it would. Could make for some funny conversations.

Looks like one of the founders is from Munich. Maybe he is just a little trolly.

  Being trollish doesn't make your name any better. And yeah, I find the name very unfortunate as well, especially in combination with call to actions like "Click here to Spritz".

i don't speak a word in german other than beer varieties and i also read that as something like spraying words. only on the second take i got the sprint similarity. ...Completely missed the climax though.

I feel the same. I can't read their FAQ without cringing/laughing. Don’t spritz me you spritzin’ spritzer! (wtf?) Will spritzing burn my retinas? (only if he spritzes in your eye...)

Directly from the FAQ: Hehehehehehe! Do you know what Spritz means in German? ROFL! LMAO! One of our founders is from Munich, so yes, we know. We bet you won’t forget it though, will you?
