Meanings of some companies names

Hi,

I just by chance know that there are 2 companies that have the name on below:

Orderware Solution Ltd.
Kineticsware Inc.
(They both doing the business on computer software industry)

My questions are:

Why and when the business owners can add the tittle "Solution" into the business' name?

In my understanding, "ware" stands for software, and how about order and kinetics?
Do they want to imply / convey any message behind the word such as:
_ kineticsware: My company makes fast-processing softwares
(I understand that the word kinetics relates to the movement)

Also, can I decide a company which names Kineticsware Solution Ltd ?

Regards,
Ng P.

P.S: I'm not running a business, but just so confusing about the languge.

It reminds me of the RadioShack slogan they were using for awhile: You've got questions; we've got answers. I think "solutions" implies consulting. We can solve your problems.

  • I would assume "orderware" is software to facilitate the handling of online orders for merchandise.

Thanks for your reply.

How about the name kineticsware? Can you please explain in detail why what it means?

I could only guess on that. Kinetics has to do with the physics of motion. if you combine that with processing orders you might come up with logistics, or the handling of storage and retrieval of merchandise.

Advertising and brand names often have more to do with what will get your attention than with the true meanings of the words used.
What do "Starkist" and "Bumblebee" have to do
