I have to admit, when I discovered this I was a bit disappointed. For a long time I thought it was just a great brand name somebody came up with instead of the founder's last name.

A good last name is the best kind of brand name though?

It’s 100% commitment.

		Yes, Li-ion batteries would have been so much better had they been called "Goodenough batteries". And we already have Galvanic cells and Voltaic piles, so it wouldn't have been the first battery named after its creator.
