In a professional setting, in the context of a marketing/naming discussion, I doubt anyone would have a problem saying "that's too close to the name of a popular porn site". Nobody whose humor has grown past a 12-year-old's will respond to that with "and how exactly do you know that?"; it's the job of the people in that room to know about myriad brands and products that they may or may not use, and the connotations of various names.
