Why not pick "viking" the name sounds awesome doesn't it. Also the name of the old legacy controllers fit with the name of the brand.

My heritage is Norwegian so I went with Viking. Plus there weren't any other companies named Viking. And then our marketing team decided to use Norse mythology for the Thor's Hammer and Odin's Raven, and then later Tyr's Hand.

Originally the Thor's Hammer was called the Sleeper, and the Odin's Raven was called the Duo. After we were in business about 3-4 months we launched a new website and went ahead and re-named those controllers to fit the look of the new website.

Of course that particular website is gone now and we now have the macro website.
