I understand they were fond of the tutanota name. But I can't believe they kept the tuta part instead of any of the new names they were brainstorming.
I know what tutanota actually means, but in spanish, Tuta sounds almost exactly like Puta (bitch, whore) when said in conversation. Its like if an email service was named focque.com without taking into account how it sounds in one of the most spoken languages in the world. And they had a chance to take it but kept the tuta part.
But I like the product, just wanted to rant.
