Execution truly does.

The name bit is a bit surprising to me. As an Indian the name struck with everyone. But when I came over to the US, the feedback for the name from the average user was – I’d say not so great.

First reaction I got from someone was "is that link SFW?"

Talk about cultures.

We are a team of 4 people in 3 continents, none of whom have seen each other http://www.cucumbertown.com/humans and all through our dev process this never struck us. Guess we are the angels on earth.

There is a story behind the name Cucumbertown. http://www.cucumbertown.com/faq/#whatupwithname

I realized the name issue during my first dialogue at Sand Hill. The conversations went pretty well until there was a pause towards the end. A partner chalked in words together and politely asked me if I was open to changing the name. That’s when it struck. But then we have a reason for it…

He was half joking. I think.

I think the name is really cute, actually. Doesn't sound like a startup at all. Maybe sounds a little childish but I think you can own that.
