FINBOO - does this word (name) sound ok?
 
Hi guys!
 
I have a question for our native English speakers - what does the word FINBOO reminds you of? Would you be able to make out what kind of product is behind the name? Does it sound interesting to you? if not, how would you change it?
 
Thanks for your suggestions!

Well, it doesn �t ring any bells or remind me of anything. It sounds like a �fun � word, I wouldn �t expect it to represent anything serious. I can �t really imagine what product is behind it... Maybe a soap or shower gel? If you want it to sound a bit more serious, maybe �finbo �. Or a game, in which case, finboo sounds good!

I did not get finances from finboo. My reaction was like Lynne �s. No associations.

How about a shark repellent or a fake shark fin for scaring other swimmers?  :D

Putting a vowel (maybe a) between the n and the b would make it sound a little more serious.. Since "Boo!" is what we shout to scare people, it doesn �t make a very "financial"-sounding ending.
