Given how much 'Titan' sounds like 'Feitian', I'm a little bit surprised their upstream hardware vendor would be ok with them using the brand.

They're probably OK with it because of the profit they stand to make from the increased visibility/marketing. To Americans, I'd guess "Feitian" sounds like "some foreign thing I've never heard of" whereas "Google Titan" feels warm and fuzzy.
