This was a great post by TheNextWeb!15 Dumbest Names
Some of my favorites from the list:
ooVoo — what the hell were they thinking??!??
Oooooc.com — hehe, I’m imagining them spelling it to people over the phone…”o-o-o-o-o…”
Jiglu — I’m just a Jiglu…
I’d like to add a few of my own:
Twitter — Twitter? I barely even…
KidZui — On TechCrunch today! They should be censored on name alone.
Pownce — Pownce iz sillee and dum
Joost — Joost haz it all rong too
Flickr — I barely… …and it reminds me of the early 2000s RAZR…

They may have wierd names, but Twitter and Flickr and pretty well known now.
as for ooVoo and Oooooc.com; im guessing they are targeting those people that type random things in google search. I have to imagine they get a few hits. They are still bad names, so I won’t defend them for that…

There are a few startups in Germany ending in …doo - such as swoodoo.com and a few others. If they ever go international, that naming will be fatal. Or can you imagine buying your flights from a site named “doo”? Reminds me of… dog doo, or something to that effect.
