"Geek" doesn't belong in mass market product name, IMO. And FanSnap is a plain ole decent name.
Seemed to work out alright for geeksquad.
Hard to say. But it makes a lot more sense for that service.
The double "e" sound. SeatGeek, when said quickly, can sound like SeeGee. I've had plenty of conversations where I talk about SeatGeek for the first time and I have to repeat the name.
I agree. FanSnap is by far the better sounding name.
