Given that Dank means cool in today's slang, I can see it working for a certain segment of the society and maybe that's what he's going for, but what happens what that slang is no longer "cool" or goes out of style...does the company change brand names at that point?  Something to ponder...

Danke fur dein Dank Leder!!

Sometimes you have to "chase" the euphemisms to keep up .....

Once upon a time (late 1800s) the polite, and technical term, for a person with a mental deficiency compared to the norm (whatever that means) was called a "Cretin".

That term turned into a perjorative one, and the polite term was changed to "Idiot".

That term turned into a perjorative one, and the polite term was changed to "Feeble Minded".

That term turned into a perjorative one, and the polite term was changed to "Retarded".

That term turned into a perjorative one, and the term was changed to "Special".   And now that term is in the process of being changed to "Challenged".   Who knows what's next, once people finish using those terms as insults?

So naming a company after a potentially changeable bit of street slang might be trouble.

Although sticking with "National", "Acme", "Excelsior", "Consolidated", or "United Farm" as a name for a custom leather shop could be boring.   It probably won't backfire, though.

Oddly enough, I heard the term 'dank' used on TV just today, to describe particularly good marijuana. I think I am now old enough that when I hear a term used in an unfamiliar way, I now wait to find out if ways have changed.

Except 'impacted'. I don't care what anyone says, it is an adjective, not a verb! (I hate verbing...)

Yeah.  You tell'em!       

TEXT is a noun, folks.  TEXTED -- well, I don't know what that is.

Duke and Dakota!   Evokes not only nobility but John Wayne, the American West, it's alliterative (d-k and d-k) and easy to remember.

I'm going to send them something now just for the heck of it ....
