What’s in a name?

This morning, I asked the concierge at my hotel where the nearest ATM was.  Lucky for me, it was right down the street.  Imagine my surprise when I arrived.  Is Rab-o-bank inviting trouble, or just ignorant of multi-lingual translations of their name?

We often help clients brainstorm names and branding for their startups.  I guarantee this is not one we would have recommended for a US bank!
