What do you feel or think when you read the word Flocker

Hi,

I posted a question earlier about several "weird" words that i was considering to use as the brandname for my blog. ( An online magazine for men )

The word that seem to stick in my mind for some reason is Flocker ( Flocker Magazine )

I am not a native english speaker so i have no real idea how the word/name comes across,

My question to the native speakers here is,...

Do you think it would be a good name to use or would you advice against it cause it's to close the word f*cker and people would be offended or whatever?

and also, When you would read the word in the search results on Google lets say for example you searched for "a silver watch" and one of the results shows 5 sliver watches ] Flocker.com

Do you think it will give people the idea that the site is about something sexual or would people just see it as the brandname its ment to be?

Overall i would just like to know if its easy to overcome the hidden association with f*cker there and see it as a brandname

Hope i'm making sense here , like i said english is not my native language.

I appreciate any help i can get!

Thanks,

That should not deter you from using it. When the actually read your blog, they will know what the actual purpose is.
