It took me a while to figure out the problem with the name, which I guess is why the people creating the name didn't see any possible problem either.
Naturally, the problem is really with people who read it wrong, since the pronunciation is clearly not the same.

Can we assume the execs in the companies are not fans of rap music? Geez.
Not as dire an oops, perhaps, but in my home town there is a Leake Gas Company. I used to have a whole collection of that sort of thing. One of my favorites was The Fade Paint Company, somewhere in Florida.

There used to be a builder's firm called Fidler and Leake.
Hairdressers all over have jokey names, like A Cut Above, or one near where I used to live was called Jefferson Hairplane (remember them?). And there's a florist in London called Woops A Daisy.
