Metabo?? Always check the meaning of names you chose
I spotted this with a Japanese friend and he started laughinig. Metabo means Methabolic (a bit too fat) in Japanese and it was so funny for him
The too fat drilling machine
Be careful about product names
I know at least one product which is named Calpico in all other countries expect for Japan. Calipis is a delcious Japanese Syrup. But Cal-PISS would sound strange to western culture, so they changed the name outside Japan to Calpico. Many probably know Calpico and drink it at
Japanese Restaurants
Do you know any other name failures ???

I can't think of any off the top of my head, but some products just can't be translated in other countries or languages without major issues.

Not so much of a name but the way you place the name. I heard this one about a "MIND THERAPIST" and he had a short signboad and decided to put it this way:
MIND

RAPIST
