Since most of these are foreign products whose name only became problematic for the English speaking American markets, how about a list for American prodducts with similar giggle -inducing names in foreign markets?
Beavis And Butthead Would've Got A Kick Out Of This List.
Americans take those naming conventions by foreign countries way too harshly.
The Lovesac guys knew exactly what they were doing 😂
Just ask a thirteen year old boy to watch the commercial. If they laugh, rebrand!
In all fairness, Ayd's came out decades before the disease was given a similar name with a different spelling. There was no way the company could have known in advance.
But when the disease was mentioned by name their attempted rebrand of “Ayds Slim & Diet” wasn’t the best direction
Same is true for all aides. Ice got away unharmed though...
It reminds me of corona
Unfortunate how both the beer and the virus share the same name
Also, Brother p-touch predated touch screens

" youll definitely turn heads when you have kum in your hair!!"
Jesus there's no way someone didnt think that was a weird catch phrase
😂😂🤣🤣
I had to make sure someone else heard that 🤦🏽♀️😂
It must be on purpose!
I heard that slogan, and my first thought was: "Hey! Phrasing!"
@@bowtiesrcool86 Phrasing! BOOM!
_”You’ll definitely turn heads when you have KUM in your hair.”_ 😂

"There's Something About Mary" - hair gel scene comes to mind!
My husband used to teach middle school music. Now elementary. A student, female, needed a string replaced on her cello. The G note. She told her dad she needed money for a G string and that my husband would help her put it on. The dad flipped for a few minutes and was about to call her school. Luckily he asked her if this had something to do with her cello. The student was extremely puzzled like “duh what did you think I was talking about.” Since then my husband has told his students to call strings (letter) note string. There’s also a part on violins, violas and cellos called the F hole. My husband calls it the F letter hole to prevent trouble.
Damn that was a close one the dad was smart to clarify.
A friend with a 6 string guitar needed an emergency string after his broke, the lowest string, tuned to G. It's about a 70 gauge string. I pulled a string off my bass that's a 65 gauge, my D string. I handed it to him and said "put my D in your G-string slot" and he lost it.
🤣
Fun fact, in Sydney, Australia there is a car rental company called ANIS car rental. The comedy writes itself as you can imagine

A famous rugby league player had a Greyhound named Nads, so when he raced, everyone would scream GO NADS. Rip Terry Hill
I'm surprised you didn't use a clip of Jared in South Park talking about how he used AIDS to lose weight. How he was referring to having people who are health aids and not the disease but people got confused.
Probably because it is in no way, shape or form connected to or relevant to the product or reasoning behind the demise of the product.
"Ayds candy...no drugs"
Oh boy. Too many of these are making me laugh
My mom would sometimes let me eat a few ayds...
Pocket Fisherman is legit. I caught fish with a vintage one last summer. Fun and unique, great for small pond fishing
I know truck drivers who like to fish, but with little extra room in the sleeper, they carry a pocket fisherman. There are many time you can find a pocket fisherman in some god old boys tool box SO FAR, no one has admitted to having a wonder boner in the back seat of an SUV, but we do ?wonder? don't we!
12:13 “you’ll definitely turn heads when you have k.u.m in your hair”💀
LOL the voice actress for K.U.M. was not a clue when it took a week of recording to finally get one without some laugh from someone.
That Pee Cola reminds me of the scene in Dumb and Dumber, where the police man drank urine from a bottle thinking it was beer.
You should rename the video " Top 30 Most Hilarious product names" because I couldn't stop laughing
I think I tinkled a bit
@@1Avatar You laughed so hard you made cola?
Definitely...this video proves that my sense of humor has not progressed past 12 year old stage, especially once this got to #3, because even if the narrator didn't go there, my mind certainly did
@@NYChica23 exactly.
I remember , as a child in the 60’s, my mother always kept a box of AYDS in the refrigerator… they were totally gross tasting.

To be fair, the Wunder Boner does work quite well
That’s what she said. 😉
One would HOPE...
@@Bintexas I wasn't trying to be funny. That's another overused joke that stopped being funny ages ago. It actually did make de-boning fish cleaner, faster, and easier
@@MasterOfViewership i bet you are a lot of fun at parties. 🙄. Yeah, it is a silly and trite joke. Better than a pedantic scold
@@Bintexas I am. People always enjoyed me being around, but the joke is still overused and no longer funny
that "iBeat Blaxx" is by far the worse in the list. how did no one catch that?
@alexhaladay4345
As a German, who follows American Culture and News etc and speaks fluent English and works with a ton of Americans since over 10 Years. i get the upset by Americans. But it's really really silly for Americans to see that Name from a foreign Country where even English Language Movies are dubbed into German to this Day to assume anything Racist.
To me that Example seems more like a Case of "Ameri-centricism" in which Americans see a Product or whatever from a different Language and automatically connect it to their Language and Culture and then demand it should be changed because it's offensive to them and their Culture especially.
I give you an extreme Example from Austria, there is a Last Name in Austria called N*ggas. This Name existed way before that Word even existed, so in Austria and Bavaria there are Businesses called something like "Woodwork Company N*ggas" which they have on their Vans etc.
LUCKILY Americans didn't find out about these yet, because if they get upset about "Blaxx", this will blow their Mind and probably destroy some lower class blue collar Family Companies existing since over 100 Years just because the Word means something different in English than it does here.
Just something to think about
Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps
When some of these products were named, public language wasn't as coarse as it's become. In the 1980s, outside the locker room, a sack or a bag was what one carried their produce in. We didn't titter (ha ha!) quite so much over innuendo in polite adult company before Beavis & Butthead.
You guys just had no humor
@@user-cw6zz6yy2pNo, they had a limit and maturity.
I am sure the FCC didn't have a giant list of euphemisms & innuendos that were common so they could censor whatever they felt necessary.
"Nad's" comes from the founder's daughter, whose name is Nadia.
There's an ærosol product in Australia to help reluctant car engines to start that's called "Start Ya Bastard".
Liquor shops were often unable to sell Corona during the pandemic and they had to sell it at a discounted price.
Your #1 reminds me of when I lived in Japan. There were definitely some interesting translations. I bought gift bags that said “Respiration,” which I found out was supposed to be, “Breathe.” My favorite was the spiral notebooks that had different subjects on each with the tagline, “Each notebook is differently subjected. It is hoped that you will do better in school.” 😂
Cemen dip - not your average Tzatziki.
Sounds tasty. Potato, garlic and walnut
Jesus, Lord...I almost passed out laughing. 😂
Johnson Reel is worse than Pocket Fisherman
Several of these I literally LOL'd! I mean, to be so unaware of how a title sounds is just amazing to me! This list was so much fun!
Ayds were popular LONG before AIDS disease was ever heard of
Haha, obviously, whoever thought of these product names clearly didn't check to see if they sounded awkward or had creepy implications!
Oh no, the wonder boner KNEW what they were talking about. 100%. Some of them knew that it was weird and banked on people buying it for the loll's alone.
Cemen dip is crazy
Reebok, “Hey this band has a cool name, Incubus… let’s put it on a shoe!”
Did no one at Reebok ever think to look up what the word meant?
When I was young, all the kids around the neighborhood would go to Old Man Herbert's house and he'd give us all some of that fresh Cemen Drip. MmmMmm! 🤤
Fort Dix 😢
All the kids love Cemen
Did you enjoy getting Djizz Djinn too?
Dont eat the popsicles kid
I honestly didn't see what the big deal was for the Crea Mass until you showed the container. Then, duh!! XD
yeah after that it becomes blatantly obvious
Did no one at Reeboks seriously think to look up incubus in a dictionary, encyclopedia, or even the internet?
I always wondered the same about the band
Yes yes they did no way they didn’t know the meaning
12:13- OH MY GOD HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!
It makes it so much funnier with the British accent.
12:06 The KUM hair care advert is straight out of GTA😂
Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! 13:53 That's a brilliant product with a remarkable name. 🤣 I heard fish de-boning process is quite hard.
Kudos to the people who did computer research on these.
How does Nad's remove body hair without the Pain! Seriously I want to know!
CUM Books is a chain of bookshops specialising in religious books & gifts. Some have coffee shops attached, in South Africa. ( acronym for Christelike Uitgewers Maatskappy)
Tiddy Bear didn't make the cut.
I fought nads was an acronym standing for new Australian depilatory system or something like that. Didn't stop me from buying it, just be mindful it doesn't work when it gets too warm.
Barfy Burgers makes me think of "You Can't Do That On Television".
Same here.
That or Double Dare.
Lovesac makes modular couches now too. And the company is worth half a billion dollars. Didnt do too bad it seems as a company name.
no but it still sounds a little sexual
In Australia Nads is short for Gonads , or your Nuts ..... so basically this was intentional , because literally everyone joked about it on release , and therefore , got tonnes of Free publicity via Teenagers making jokes 24/7 about it. Thats how i learned about it in High school lol
Japan has had some dubious brand names: Glicko Pocky (pock marks anyone), Creap (powdered cream), and Calpis (a fermented milk drink, which was later named Calpico)
"As she was the admiral's daughter, her naval base was always full of seamen."
I don’t understand what’s wrong with “pocket fisherman.”
THIS IS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST SHIT EVER MADE BY WATCHMOJO!!!🤣
AYDS faced the unfortunate ongoing event of its product line ending due to unforeseen circumstances. While SARS and Corona are also continuing health issues, the products associated with these terms managed to maintain their product lines, as their names have no correlation to the diseases themselves. In contrast, AYDS's association with weight loss, its main selling point, ultimately led to its downfall.
I dunno.. Maybe it's me. But I'd buy EVERY ONE of these products. Just for the joy of going into a shop and asking for them by name.
But then, I am that dollshead that when I have to go to the doctors for a blood test, I walk up to the receptionist and cheerily announce "I'm here to see the vampire!" Gets a laugh... er.. Never..
Ever heard of a canned soft drink called “Kick-A-Poo” ?
i have. and i have tasted it. it tastes literally like shit
“When you let AI make up names for products “ 😂 the last one had me crying lol
Booty, also means treasure. So, treasure goo?
Ok but Nad's = Nadine, aka the daughter. Just mention that next time
then it wouldnt be funny
Yes, but also b@77 sack.
LoveSac.... first time I heard of it I thought it sounded like something a guy would nickname his privates.
Booty Goo.... almost as bad as a product my workplace sold.... Butt Paste.
Burning Love Pouch.... sounds like something a guy awkwardly tells his doctor about.
am i missing something what's wrong with pocket fisherman
Wieners in the underwear 💀
Im not from the us so I had no idea
Catching fish with the "rod" in your pants...
That's it? That's really dumb, I was hopping for something more funny or cleaver@@slowanddeliberate6893
I was confused too, but now that another one who relied on this reminded me that a fishing pole is also called a "fisheing rod", and what it can taken as, I get it.
As a kid in the 80s, when I first heard of the disease AIDS, I thought of the diet candy. I'd see it advertised all the time on my mom's soap operas.
This was great, I remember most of these. My dad and I would always chuckle about Pocket Fisherman, thanks for the memories 😊
Ayd's appetite suppressant was apparently so unpalatable it did, in fact suppress one's appetite.
22:20 ... and then 20:45 - you just couldn't avoid it. 🤣🤣🤣
19:13 I had a feeling that this was gonna be on here. What was Nintendo thinking when they called the game that?! 😂😂
But have you ever Wonderboned a sucker fish?
Only if you’re lucky. 😂😂😂
ポカリスエットは？
"You'll definitely turn heads when you have Kum in your hair."
I'm f*cking DYING!!!!!😂🤣😂🤣
Barfy Burgers reminded me of Barthy Burgers from You Can't Do That On Television
Wack Off?? Oh yeah? YOU get deployed out into the desert or into the jungle for several months and then tell me afterwards you didn't have a 'wack off' moment! LOL
20:30 there was a Corona outbreak back in 2003?! I know that COVID has been around for a while but didn’t know that it actually broke out!
Coronavirus is a family of viruses that was first identified in the 1960s. The one in 2003 was mostly referred to as SARS.
Different corona. Corona just means crown and that's what the virus looks like
Douche means shower in many languages.
That thumbnail though 😮😂
Sars is short for sarsaparilla in Australia - where we shorten EVERYTHING.. And I do mean EVERYTHING.
I got told about some parents who decided to name their newborn son Brian - on the grounds it couldn't be shortened. Guess what? Yup - got shortened to Bri!
Pocket fisherman made me think of two things
A pickpocket, or a small fishing rod that would very easily get the hook caught in your kids mouth
If I had heard about Hello Kitty Pussy Wind, I would have bought them, wrapped them up and sneakily put them under my friends (Women & men) Christmas Trees,with only their Names typed on the name gift Tag. My Mom who would be 97 this Year would have Peed herself laughing. 😂😂🤣
10:15 no wonder Reebok is declining!
All could’ve been avoided if they looked up what the word meant. Must’ve slapped it on the shoe because it sounded cool to them.
I feel like most of these Nostalgia Critic covered in his commercials videos lol. Those vids are hilarious, but good countdown. These products are oddly named and so bizarre.
How could they do a piece about something called "Barfy Burgers" without adding a You Can't Do That On Television reference?
You won't say the name of the dip; but will say the name of the "kitty" product? >
And now the most awesome online store names. My #1 is "Banggood".
I never new what GIMP could also stand for. I just used it for so long without knowing it :D
Some company names are questionable too. Kum N Go convenience stores, for one.
Just a little fact: in Germany, there is a stationery brand known as KUM (pronounced koom) that specializes in making pencil sharpeners, erasers, pens, and office stationery items. For those who do not know, the acronym is a German phrase (Kunststoff und Metallwarenfabrik) which means "plastic and metal goods factory". The company has been operating in Germany since 1919.😊
Some years ago, I lived in France where a very popular brand of soft drink was called Pschitt. I used to laugh like a drain every time I saw it on sale in the supermarket but French people did not think it funny at all.
In the Midwest, there's a convenience store chain called Kum & Go. Need I say more?
😅
Used gimp in school a few times 😆
11:08 it doesn’t help that it’s called "Humbert Dry Sack" either…
Between the Wunder Boner and Ayds i can’t help but laugh my ass off about how funny and unfortunate those product names are. 😂🤣
All of the products listed on this video had inventors with their minds out of the gutter with the most cringey products names.
The Fingers Marie makes sense when you realize that there’s a ladyfingers type of cookie. But yes, that should also I have a better name.
You realize Gimp is an actual word in the dictionary and not just a character from Pulp Fiction I hope?
16:59
Out of the commonly used names like "heimuer" or "black wood ear" (Both are translated from it's Chinese name , one is Homophonic translation(following the original sound) , one is sense-for-sense (translated all three Chinese characters , one by one.) ) or the more scientific "Auricularia heimuer".
They have to pick up a name that is less familiarized by the public.
I have always hated the Lovesac name for furniture.
3:49 THANK YOU! I KNEW I couldn't be the only one...
The WHAT detector?! 😂
8:55 & we still use Nads today🤣
The Wunder Boner’s function makes me more uncomfortable than it’s name.
Corona is also a brandy in Finland.
I am surprissed you missed the following:
Jussi Pussi type of bread from Finland
Pschit Cola from France
Super Piss Car De-Icer from Finland
Golden Gaytime Ice Cream from Australia
You forgot about the Tiddy Bear.
You know tye name is vad when the nostalgia critic has covered the commercials.
Child Predator hands are just adult sized human hand gloves for kids.
half of these made me scream out either in laughter or cringe....my gawd the trolling was strong with this list XD
