Have you ever been forced to change your site name?

[bomb]

Has there ever been a time where you were forced to change your sites name or domain? Maybe it was due to copyright, or had an offensive term. I don't think I ever had one of my sites be forced to get a name change. Then again, I'd had many sites.

Yes, sure. I once named my site using our local native language. But i later learnt that it meant something bad in French. So i noticed the traffic from French speaking countries. It made me to research about the name. But since i had already advertised and i also needed the traffic from those countries, i had to find a way to tweak the name.

Name and what it could mean in different languages is very important and i think that this is something that is overlooked because more often than not it is jsut a coincidence that it happens in this way.
