Yea, I thought so. But well, who knows after a discussion with the company they might go for it. lol

EDIT: Oh yea, another reason I suggested that anyway (while acknowledging the fact that Haiyan doesn't own the whole company/designs) is because "from now on all Type A will change to Haiyan" or something along that line.

Added note: On www.cubehaiyan.com, all the A-I, A-II is listed as Haiyan's cube (I), Haiyan's cube (II) and so on.

velocious cube
lascivious cube
libertine cube

Elegant


Wierd and made up names that sound cool:
Arphenion
Aglaeca

I'd suggest branding it as Haiyan.

Reasons:
1. What's more unique and easy to recognise than Haiyan? If I see Alpha/Lightning and Haiyan on the packaging box, somehow I think Haiyan will stand out more. And if there's no Haiyan, it sounds/looks like just another anonymous company's cube.

2. Branding your own name is always good. It's like a quality assurance. Think Ferrari, Lamborghini, Honda.. (V-cubes too!) they're all the names of their founder. What's better than having each of the product carries your own distinctive name?

3. Don't worry about English or not, since after you brand it, people won't be bothered with the name. As I know, Sony is not an English word (nor is Japanese) but it's world-wide recognised brand. Sony might be arguable because it's chosen for being easy to spell/pronounce in any languages. But on the other hand, Porsche, Lamborghini.. urr.. Ferrero Rocher.. Even people debated on "Fridrich".

Of course, if you'd prefer something other than your own name, then as long as it's simple/easy to remember and distinctive, you'll be fine. Often, it doesn't even have to be meaningful nor related to your products.

Apple (iMac, iPod, iTunes)
Bicycle (playing cards)
Buffalo (hard disk)

You might argue that Apple and Bicycle has gotten the names from certain incidents/history.. and Buffalo for the tough/strong properties.. but would you have guessed it if no one tells you what their product is?



Just my thoughts.

I'll put my money on "Haiyan Alpha"

you need the "A" in there somewhere, and everyone knows the OP's cube as HaiYan cubes....

if you call this one haiyan alpha, you can call the rest like haiyan beta/haiyan better, haiyan cool, haiyan dogg

but seriously tho, Haiyan Alpha is what you need, not a name like "something CUBE" - as in put the word 'cube' in the name, because it's redundant, cubers would know that you bought a cube if you say 'type A', you dont have to reiterate that you bought a 'type A cube'

"Samurai" would suggest the Chinese origin too so I think you should pick mine

Haiyan Alpha sounds great, but as was stated twice, it isn't just his design. If you were to take part in making an amazing cube design and asked people for names. Would you be happy if they named it after themselves?
