I don’t follow your (or your parent post’s) line of thinking. Apparently “dépêche means dispatch (or update, message or news),” and has a connotation of “fast.” I don’t see how this really applies to Drapache, which I thought of as “dr’apache,” a portmanteau of “drop(box)” and “apache.” I’m a Depeche Mode fan, but don’t see how it relates.

Where’s the pun? :)

Depeche Mode is the name of band from the 80s. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depeche_Mode

I know, and mentioned the band in my post. But that’s not a pun, that’s just a reference. For it to be a good name, doesn’t depeche have to have something to do with Dropbox?

you are very much right :-)

How you snip the name from another 80's band and let the name... "Mmmmmmmmm... DROP!" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnPQdrPnCpE :)

"mod_depeche" is a pun on "mod", not "depeche". Clever, and would make a fun name for something (just not this).
