LOL -- it's not just a web thing! We got raked over the coals by someone on Twitter: "ftr, this is a dumb name for a product that has nothing to do with tigers or tacos (besides the shape): http://www.tigertaco.com"
I was tempted to make a point that there are few Orange animals (90% of our Tiger Tacos are orange), that it gave us a unique url, that we own the patent on the utility our product solves and could have called it anything while nobody can make/sell anything like our tacos (and "out smart" our brand name) and so obviously we thought a lot about the name, that we had to "challenge" peoples thinking before we'd be able to get them to consider what we do, and how it was indeed something we "fought about" internally ... and a million other things; basically it's like the reward that comes with having a child in that you get naming rights!
But I didn't say anything; I figure there are just some people who refuse to get things and are just "haters" because of how small/bitter their own lives are in this great big world ... just saying names are a very personal thing and you shouldn't feel bad if not everyone loves you or gives you a chance just because they don't like your name!
