We're terrible at company and brand naming here in Europe. Just look at the "Wero" payment solution (formerly/currently iDeal). Like, who the hell came up with that stupid name?

The list of stupid European company names and product names are endless.

I find it okay'ish. At least it's unique. Say, as much as I like Mario Zechner (who doesn't like HNers anymore for whatever reason), naming your product "Pi" is just terribly bad.

Facebook was a good name (hate the company but the name was good). But "Meta" is just dumbfucktarded.

Wait... I've got an idea: I'm going to make a product and name it "Alt". Or "Control".

Really: there are a lot of totally unhelpful name that just confuses everybody, including search engines, humans, and LLMs but I don't think "Solvinity" is that bad.
