Company Name Etymologies

August 5, 2004 by Dane Carlson | 0 Comments

At Wikipedia (one of my new favorite sites), there’s a page of company names and their origins explained:

  • Casio – from the name of its founder, Kashio Tadao who had set up the company Kashio Seisakujo as a subcontractor factory.
  • Cisco – short for San Francisco.
  • Coca-Cola – Coca-Cola’s name is derived from the coca leaves and kola fruits used as flavoring. Coca-Cola creator John S. Pemberton changed the ‘K’ of kola to ‘C’ for the name to look better.
  • Coleco – began as the Connecticut Leather Company.
  • Colgate-Palmolive – formed from a merger of soap manufacturers Colgate & Company and Palmolive-Peet. The Peet was dropped in 1953; “Palmolive” was named for the two oils used in its manufacture.
