Re: Famous Brand Names Actually Have A Meaning

Verizon stems from the latin word Veritas, meaning "truth."
Verizon was the product of a merger between Bell Atlantic and GTE, both telecommunications companies. The name is a mix between the latin word "veritas" meaning "truth," and horizon, which is meant to signify that the brand is forward-looking.

JCPenney is named after its founder, whose name is just too good to be true.
