I'm simple enough of mind that Finast bath tissue, diapers, and canned hams always amused me. "My baby only wears Finast diapers." Yeah.

This is finnish product so it's not in that way so funny, but some native english speakers find it funny.
Potato chips.
And oh god Kettle potato chips are so good. I wish that we had those little bags in grocery stores here in Finland.

This almost brang tears when I first heard about it. (no, not really...)
The operating system that I've only recently discovered it's true name (ever since my first encounter with OS2007, i always thought it was may-moe, not my-moe) is now turning into MeeGo?!
I guess you have to break some compatibility before making a compilation...

Now they get their own back as Maemo mutates into something perfectly described by General Antilles as "Something Fisher Price came up with"
But giving good things stupid names has a long and honorable history. It was over 20 years ago I first encountered Pshit lemonade. (No, I never had the courage to try it).
To help us get over the pain of being forced to change our name in an arranged marriage here are a few other things that got misnamed.
