Some years ago a shoe company came out with a shoe
they named "The
Incubus". Said shoes were in the stores before management realized
what an incubus is.
My all time favorit: Mitsubishi Pajero.
They soled that car under this name in parts of the world where spanish
is spoken. Not noticing that "pajero" in spanish means "wanker". They
where surprised that the car didn't sell well. When they noticed the
mistake they renamed the car to Montero.
