Waymofos would be better.

Works for any startup with the -mo suffix too.

Since Waymo skipped on that demonym, big opportunity for Venmofos.

Someone (perhaps me) would be offended at the meaning and implication of that name. It's awful.
Yes, that's the joke.

That said, there is a large, reputable, international law firm called Morrison & Foerster that revels in this wonderful domain name: https://www.mofo.com/

Let's face it - if you were hiring lawyers, wouldn't you want a bunch of MoFos?
Personally, I think it's hilarious. It reminds me of the "Butt-faces" - the name the first executive group at Nike gave themselves [0]
