Silly company names.
Oh, well, Raining Data was an amazingly stupid name for a
database company.
As to the others, is anything really silly anymore considering
the names we see every day?
Yahoo!, Google, Bing, Twitter, Facebook, Digg, Drupal, Joomla,
Mambo, Samba, (or more obscure) Vyatta, Wibiya, Stupeflix,
Granicus, Zimbra, Xen (or how about Linux distros) Mandriva
(formerly Mandrake), Ubuntu, Debian, Sabayon, (or just Linux
release names) Etch, Lenny, Squeeze, Wheezy, Gutsy, Zoot,
Shrike...
I stopped thinking anything was silly in IT after grep, awk, and
sed. The trend started decades ago when names like "Johnson
Software Co" were all taken. This is just the world we live in.
