How are they able to use such a brand name, Tiktoken? Is it because TikTok is Chinese? Tiktoken, it's almost like if Apple released the Facebooken library for something entirely unrelated to Facebook.

That's not the right analogy. The "tok" in "Tiktoken" comes from "token", not "TikTok".

And the "tik" comes from TikTok.
