| ▲ | Mordisquitos 6 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Yes, their choice of name was not their greatest achievement. | | |
| ▲ | em-bee 6 hours ago | parent [-] | | it was supposed to be a temporary name, that i believe was intentionally chosen to be bad to make it easier to replace later. they were under pressure because the original name eelo had a trademark issue. when they eventually found a new name "murena" it appears they then decided to use it as a brand for the phones that they themselves sell instead, keeping /e/OS as the name for the operating system | | |
| ▲ | amelius 6 hours ago | parent [-] | | What is their connection with eels? I just checked and Murena is an eel, too. Imho, one of the ugliest fish one could choose as a mascotte :S | | |
| ▲ | em-bee 5 hours ago | parent [-] | | heh, i never made the connection. it's spelled muraena but that's as close as eelo is to eel. curiously i always thought morays look cute. |
