Not a company name but when I started my career I chased a building in LA that was named ICIS (
) literally pronounced ISIS. Nothing says "live here" like a war mongering anti-american jihadist group. Pretty sure whoever named that building was run out of the industry.*Building was built in 2012 so to the comments below, yes, I understand the name had good intentions but the timing couldn't have been worse for the property. It was just about that time ISIS came to the world stage. Now when we rename our buildings I google the shit out of any potential names to avoid situations like this.
I mean... I would assume the building name preceded the political/jihadist group?
Isis is also the name of one of the chief goddesses of the Egyptian pantheon, pretty much the equivalent to Hera. So while there might be a later negative association, like with a swastika, the original intent may have been benign.
Yeah one of the maintenance techs at one of our properties named his daughter Isis. He was a great guy and his daughter was the cutest kid, but that's a rough.
Have a friend named Isis, she says to me "Everyone used to tell me it was such a pretty name...now I've heard every stupid joke in the book".
There is a blunder from a politician in relation to the name at the end of Freakonomics.
its funny you ask this - I had just commented on another RE thread about a company called 'Spring11'. I always thought their name sounded immature and I found it a bit difficult to take them seriously because of it
Rockstar Capital
Search the CEO for more cringe - basically a Walmart offbrand version of Grant Cardone
LOL I see this guy everywhere on my LinkedIn. Where does he get his money from?
No idea man but me too. I cringe everytime
He may be a syndicator. He does have a real portfolio of multifamily and a real management company.
I laughed at their mascot "Rocko"
oh gawd

Off Market Deal Makers was the name of the company. They used their website to market all the off market deals they had
Wait.. were they brokers? Wouldn't that mean all their deals were on the market?
Yep
TBD Construction was a contractor doing renovations on a deal I worked on.
Reminds me of Big-D Construction, a GC that built a couple of deals I've worked on. Everyone got a kick out of that name.
Why they kept that name after becoming a national GC, I’m not sure I’ll ever understand.
I respect that..
Anything residential that is a version of "The _______ Team"
Hoar Construction kills me every time I hear it.
From my experience they suck as hard as the name suggests
lol I've never worked with them
Just came across a group called Carl Marks Advisors and felt compelled to add it to this list.
They may need to redistribute that name.
