"is that REALLY a great name for a product?" thread

[butters]

so i understand the intention (a stain-blocking primer/paint product) but—especially given the site's opening choice of using it to brighten a kitchen, is it really a great name for the product?
as a consumer, i'd have to be thinking about 'when will the first stories drop about the health dangers to humans using it?' even if it's never been shown to be harmful so far.

post products here that seem like their manufacturers should have thought harder about naming.

In the fine print; Gauranteed to leave a bad taste in your mouth.

well... i guess there are the kinds of grandmas many of us think about (properly elderly) and the 40-year olds, but it really sucks as a brand name

p.s i'm a grandma and i know i don't taste horrible, but it's all about consumer perception, lol

Do you just look for shit to get wound up over? Kilz is a great product.

lol now there’s a great idea for printing on a pair of knickers “Consummer tastesting information, it rarely sucks.” OR even better mens’ underware “Consumer tastesting information; It really sucks”

I think you're onto something... big.
