And would it matter whether it is easy to
pronounce? As the mcheung asks?

I guess you might believe that your (in)conciousness
is immune to any of these issues, pronounciation
and/or google search. But many studies show that
names are important in marketing.

Let's take the example of choosing a business
name. The pronounciation is only one item
in a check list:

     Can the proposed name be pronounced easily?
     [...]
     http://marketing.about.com/cs/marketingjobs/a/biznametest.htm

But you find also items such as:

     Does it spark interest? Is there a story behind it?
     [...]

But in modern times it is not enough to work
along a simple check list that doesn't contain
any SEO. So its also better to watch for:

     Search engine optimisation (SEO) plays a
     critical role in building an online
     presence. Talk to any SEO specialists and
     inevitably, they will recommended that
     your mindset should be set towards optimisation
     at the earliest possible stage. Even business
     names can benefit from the careful use of
     current SEO techniques.

P.S.: My favorite programming language name is:

    brainfuck
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainfuck

But there are a couple of other programming language
names equally evocative.
