20 Everyday Items That Deserve Way Better Names

Miles Teller should change his name to Odometer.

By Carly Tennes

Published 7 months ago in Funny

Though Juliet may have famously recited a monologue speaking out against the limits of monikers in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet — “What's in a name? That which we call a rose, by any other word would smell as sweet” — it appears quite a bit can go into a name … especially objects given the wrong name.


Why call them linguists when they could be "semantic fanatics"? Why call the guy from Top Gun: Maverick “Miles Teller” when he could have changed his stage name to “Odometer” years ago? These are the questions that have kept us awake at night … and now, have captivated Reddit.


From our favorite kitchen gadgets to the entire concept of chest sweat, here are 20 inanimate objects that deserve a much better name than the one they were given, as told by the fine folks of r/AskReddit.
