Wow, those names are actually real. They sound like fly-by-night compliance "brand" names on amazon sellers. How did those get approved by a multi-billion dollar marketing team?

They need a name they can trademark, and common words can't be trademarked. It's sort of a .com domain name problem, all the good names are already taken so you just go for something you hope is pronouncable.
