Or K2, U2, R2D2 for that matter. On the other hand. As soon as a symbol  is 
used to denote something and is used as a name (and us pronounced) , one may 
conclude that it has become a part of the vocabulary and thus is a part of a 
natural language. For a modern language user without a special interest for 
etymology and language history  propria like K2 or Martin are names (words) in 
the natural language without internal meaning according to my in-house 
onomasticist Solveig. So the test is in the use and not in the form.
