		<description><![CDATA[At the North American International Auto Show, Dodge unveiled the 2013 Dodge Dart. This is not the first time Dodge has returned to a historic nameplate rather than introduce a new name. A few years ago Dodge reintroduced the muscle car, Challenger.

		<description><![CDATA[As a build on my earlier post on Samsung&#8217;s smartphone naming structure, I discovered a website that the manufacturers of Android Smartphones can use to develop names.&#160; The amusing part is that it really does generate names that are similar to &#8220;real&#8221; names given to smartphones. Here it is: http://androidphonenamegenerator.com This is quite sad. The [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last year Samsung announced that it was establishing a new naming structure for its Galaxy smartphone product line.&#160; This was so that people could better understand the phone they were buying by reading the letter in the name.

Someone launched a cereal in Canada called &#8220;Holy Crap&#8221; (OK, technically the launch was Q4 2010 but they did not much US exposure until 2011).

		<description><![CDATA[I have a confession: I love code names! One of the pleasures in my 25+ year marketing career was how I often got to choose the official code name for projects.
