If it ain't it should be.

The nearest I can come up with is this fastfood restaurant

Subway, where the word sub is a part of the word, the whole word means of course something else.

If it ain't it should be.Shame, it's outstanding it would be a business winner. Never the less what a corker. :)

Not quite correct. The "whole word" is also used to mean the Submarine Sandwich in many restaurants across America.

I like that sign, would fit.. we had a baguette shop in Goeettingen in the 90ies with "Gorbatschow baguettskis", but this is lame compared to the above :haha:

I still do not understand where some modern shops get their names from, and why.

Bezos wanted to name his "Amazon" shop "Relentless" at first (what he was, and it is), but some marketing gurus told him that would create exactly the negative feelings you would expect, so they renamed it to.. Amazon?! Why this name? Nothing to do with anything on, in or from this shop :doh:

Then ebay? Huh? A bay? Since when is a bay a trading point? Or is it? An electronic bay. Ah. :doh::doh:

Then "Subway"? Nothing to do with a submarine even if some call a baguette that in the US, and a subway is the US pendant of an underground railway.
Nothing to do with baguettes or eating at all :doh::doh::doh:

Then, "Starbucks". What? Why the hell?? ::doh::doh::doh::doh:

I guess you could name a car "Pope" or "Hermann Goering" or "tomato", and enough would find it "hip". Or maybe a Cacao drink called Mucoviscidose. Hipster slang eh? !"§$%&/()

The company officially changed the name of its service from AuctionWeb to eBay in September 1997. Originally, the site belonged to Echo Bay Technology Group, Omidyar's consulting firm. Omidyar had tried to register the domain name echobay.com, but found it already taken by the Echo Bay Mines, a gold mining company, so he shortened it to his second choice, eBay.com.

@ucrank Thanks, sorry took me some time to read your answer above ��
It was of course a rant of mine, there are always reasons for a name, even if it does not make sense to customers at first No pc in reach and it is a chore typing on a small mobile, so please bear with me ��

Reminds me of the movie Air America" :)

Gene: "Tell him what you really want General."



General Soong: "Holiday Inn, owner and operator!"
