Azure does have a benefit of hindsight, and often their stuff is just named Azure + Obvious Name.

On the other hand, they came up with Bing (talk about hilariously bad), and Azure. Which they've chosen to pronounce AZH-ər (Ajer) and not AZ-yoor (Ajur, like in Côte d'Azur). This is non-obvious, and makes them sound like uncultured Americans (like when you pronounce niche as nitch; instead of like cache, which I haven't heard pronounced catch (yet)).

Yes. In my view, obvious names makes it easier to remember what something is or does. Understanding what Azure DNS do is easier than finding out and remembering what AWS Route 52 does.

*53. It's the DNS port number, but yes, not a great name.
