It recently occurred to me with the overload of technology companies and products that names are becoming less and less important. And how could you argue with one of the most popular products of the year duly named the iPad. With the exception of Apple who so cleverly names everything i, who comes up with these names? Is it some guy hanging around the office getting paid way to much to come up with a bold yet smooth alias for a device that can reach the cosmos with its intensity. And yes I did just use all phone names in the end of that sentence.
We should try this out for a size, a giant lottery pick system, similar to sports, where a computer randomly generates a number of names and each product gets its chance to pick the name they want. Upon entry each item is given a number and randomly selected for who gets to choose first. The names can range anywhere from house cat breeds to vicious yacht names.
Or wait, is that how choose already?
