The agency we eventually selected is Skriptor Zigilla, the #1 European Naming Agency with impressive international clients like Oppo, Heineken, ING, Philips, Roche, Shell, Vodafone, Bayer and Novartis.
If that's the selling argument, it doesn't make any sense: those companies (or at least the ones I know) are much older than Skriptor Zigilla is, and several of the company names are the names of the creator. They may be clients for sub-products, but those aren't the names everyone recognizes.It looks a lot like O2.
I'll probably get used to it, give me some time
So they paid the #1 naming agency to come up with the name but then paid some internet rando to design the logo?

Seems legit...
Maybe not the worst name from an SEO standpoint, but there are a number of results of you Google "obyte", including the one linked above. Anyway, I don't have any ogigabytes anymore, but good luck with it obyters.
Is that bad? Logo is just one part of whole visual identity. You know what you can't find any results on Google, MD5 hash of Obyte, but that is not great name. It is normal that short names already have results on Google.

To create the new visual identity we are going to hire an external agency with extensive experience in rebranding.
