I have had plenty of trouble with my own surname over the years, so I don’t have a lot to say about this.

But I guess it does make me think of the (mostly apocryphal) stories of brand names that don’t travel between languages and cultures.

I wonder if “Mr Perdedor” drives a Chevrolet Nova when he isn’t driving his truck. (They say they didn’t sell well in países hispanohablantes as no one wanted un coche que no va.)
