Olde Viking becoming Olde Ving

[Roo]

Good stuff Whalen

GN I agree with everyone else. 'Olde Ving' does not sound right. If it means nothing in Swedish, it probably sounds just as ridiculous to your target audience than it does to us. If 'Ving' is a nonsense word, why is it "olde"? Just rename it completely and ask the web stores to describe it as "formerly known as Olde Viking" on the websites. Call is Odens 0.589 or something. Or Olde Roo.

Good splainin Dear! I am sure the lawyer splained it out pretty clear. Now you really must give it a jazzy new name and relaunch! Olde Snusdog sounds much better! Or get some dye, and call it Olde Blue Barrels, Why not call it OLDE Premium Parrots, he's about to punch out and it would sell just as a memorial snus.
Hell you should call it Texas Tea!
GN's Classic blend
OLDE Froshingslosh
New Coke
OLde Lip
Hell just put this on the label and be done with it: I would buy it just for the label!

Reasonable explanation, but I think you could have done better with the name :^P

Ah well.. As long as it's the same snus, that's all that really matters. Olde V(ik)ing original is great, and is my favorite portion in that flavor profile.

The thing is that Viking is registrated trade mark on tobacco by another company very big company and it is not right strategicly for us continiu, with that name that company does not use Viking name but if we will sell it will become popular with time and then they will tell us that you can not sell that brand anymore cause that's our brand it will be more painfull for us so we decided while Olde V . Is not yet very popular so we change now and then sleep good .So that is why it is Olde Ving but not Olde Viking

Ving Rhames (born 1959), an American actor
Lee Ving (born Lee James Capalero in 1949), lead singer of the 80s punk band Fear
Ving (beverage), a vodka mix drink made with Jamaican Ting grapefruit soda
Ving'hawe, an administrative ward in the Mpwapwa district of the Dodoma Region of Tanzania

I don't see the connection. Why the change?
