“So, uh, this weird peninsula on the west coast of Asia, whose population is indigenous to nowhere because the real natives died off, is going to become the dominant power in world history.” Truth is stranger than fiction sometimes.

Sometimes like in the case of Lyft it makes communication easier. If you're name is a common word you probably should come up with a weird spelling or pick a better name.

Vegan products are required to do so by law, and the meat & dairy industries are still pushing back against that, trying to suggest that they be named, for example, “breaded soy and pea protein chunks.” The argument from vegan food companies is that consumers understand how to use “vegan chicken tenders” more easily and that the (quite prominent) vegan labeling is enough. I personally agree with the vegan companies there.
