This reminded me of an anecdote from Bill Cosby during an interview he did on my college radio station. I'm not entirely sure if he was just patronizing the educators, but he said that he attributed a lot of his success in comedy to education and his thirst for knowledge. Something along the lines of "the more I read and learned, the funnier I could be." Perhaps this applies in some form to naming companies and products. It seems like a lot of people limit their resources for discovering good names (e.g. Thesaurus, dictionary, domain randomizer, etc." It should come from your surroundings and what you learn. In fact, I believe Zynga is named after one of Pincus' pets.
