In a related discussion on trademarkable names, someone claimed "Reebok"
was a made up word, even though it is, of course, a Dutch word (it's a small
male deer - I bet Pythons eat this sort of thing, but wrong continent, move
along, nothing to see).

Als Nederland inderdaad een samenzwering is, waarom weet ik er dan niets
van?!
