Amazon.com Forced to Change Name

The “Sexist Police” are at it again, this time attacking eCommerce giant Amazon.com. Many womens activist groups are banding together in a suit against Amazon.com saying that the name “Amazon” is gender intolerant. Amazon is claiming the name originates from the place and is not a reference to the woman warriors made famous by Greek mythology.

Though Amazon.com claims “We are confident that the courts will see through this mockery of a suit,” the company has come up with a list of names to switch to in case of defeat. Below is a partial list of the names being considered:

  • RainforestMall.net
  • AmazonRiverMall.com
  • AmazonThePlace.com
  • ShopAmazonForest.com
  • NotAmazonWarrior.com

A spokesman for Amazon.com admits the lack of good names to choose from, claiming that all decent related domain names have been squatted by others. No word yet on what name is the frontrunner, or how many other names are being considered.
