I judge startup names too (agree "Toodu" is bad) but there is at least anecdotal evidence that bad names do not guarantee failure. My favorite example of the moment would be Whatsapp. I didn't check it out for years simply because I thought the name was trite and indicative of being a throw-away quality app effort. I suspect if one could do a real correlation study, it would back up the bad-name-to-failure theory.
