Yea making up more irrational reasons for people's irrational consumer
decisions :)

But you are rigth it is really really really hard to come up with names
on stuff .

Where I work it is often [company name] + [vaguelly relevant acronym] +
[number ,usually higher than the predecessor ]

company name sends a message directly , so it helps .

You could also include a hint to the principles of operation or physical
atribute if they are kind of novel or cool "Jet powered" "compact" .

Or hint at the result or design goals , like a really silent vacuum
cleaner that has "silent" in the name .

In that realm I Think names such as Transporter or Touch works really
well , Squeezebox is just as silly as our jokes but we got used to it .
