I wish people would reject this brand, as with the-company-formerly-known-as-facebook. Pity.

There should be a higher bar for company names than co-opting a dictionary word or even just a letter. The lack of originality seems to be accelerating: first "Alphabet", then "Meta", and now "X"? (Honorable mention for "Apple".)

I don't know how true this is, but the story was always that the Steves chose "Apple" because it was ahead of "Atari" in the phone book.
I hope it's true. But these things often turn out to be myths.
