Tizen may mean "eleven" in Hungarian, but when it's phonetically spoken outloud the English word "teasin'" (teasing) comes to mind. I guarantee you that will become a wordplay in the press that won't look good for the new OS (the way "Ovi" went over very badly with English and Latin-derived languages speaking countries). They really should reconsider the name. Quickly.
