- That's just their aesthetic. The still design sites like that so I guess it makes sense for their own site to match.acrossthesea
- They just launched this: http://www.extrememu… which has that classic 2A lookacrossthesea

I was more thinking "why not associates"

like anything else it depends.
depends on how the company portray themselves through work, word or in person.
some quirky named places do really well, while some come across as pretentious and fail.
certainly companies like 'why not' and 'yu+co' and etc do really really well but that's due to the work and the way they communicate.

noted airey. absolutely (why not associates name is befitting of the work they do and their ethos)
I was having a discussion with a friend about quirky names, and then my mind blanked even though ive come across many over the years I couldnt think of any on the spot, im seeking enlightenment.

I think this is the most outlandish agency name I've ever heard of:
Wexley School for Girls
and then the first time I heard of Strawberry Frog, I thought their name was weird but not quite so much anymore. Now it seems kinda quaint.
