I'm shocked that YC hasn't advised them that this name is terrible. It actively breaks trust by trying to piggyback on Anthropic's tool naming.

Move fast and break things. Being edgy like this is what VC's want to see.
Grab Claudet and Claudette quick!
Lots of apps named after the Whisper model (including mine - https://whispermemos.com/)

I wonder if I'll have to rename at some point.

If you're adding another word, it sounds more differentiated than Claude to Claudia. I was among the many who thought this was an official product from the makers of Claude. It's like if your product was called Whisperer.
More than that, the peer comments would support trademark issues
