The name probably suggests a new take on some piece of software called Axis, a geometrical term that makes perfect sense for a game engine.

It can't possibly have anything to do with Neo-nazism and the World War II Axis powers.

I still can't shake off the connotation.

At some point, context needs to be taken into consideration.

Just because you can find a face in any image with 3 holes doesn't mean a face is actually there, or that it's sensible to assume anything of its presence.

Does my name trigger a similar response in you?
