I've been bothered for quite some time over all crypto-currencies with bad name choices. If you know just a little bit about global product marketing you know that a product name and visuals are almost as vital as the product itself. If you want global acceptance you must understand not all countries in the world speaks English, and there are many others aspects as well. I always thought that Bitcoin is a really well thought name and maybe there actually was put some thought into it before release.. It's easy to say in most languages, you understand what it is, easy to remember, unique, works in plural, tech, etc.

Not knowing much about these coins themselves I put together two lists with the following criteria:

Easy to pronounce in non-English (in my case Swedish)
Nice flow
Unique
Awesomeness

Nice

Bitcoin
Monero
Dash
Lisk
Nxt

Stupid

Ethereum
Augur
Dogecoin
Waves
MaidSafeCoin
HoboNickels
Colossuscoin V2
Asiadigicoin
Unobtanium
Groestlcoin

See the difference? If I would invent my own world wide super money I would go for [Unibit]. Without any deeper thought I think it beats most of the 700+ different currencies currently known. Come on, it's not that hard!

Totally agree. The name is fundamental to the "brand" of the project.
