You do realise that 'unic' in english sounds exactly like 'eunuch' (pronounced 'unick') don't you? Do you realise this is 'a man who has been castrated'. It also has another meaning too, which is just as innapropriate for a hand-held - 'an ineffective man'.

great suggestion

​

this is I-unic not unic.
I know you are also in the contest but at least be fair-play not trying to flame everyone who's not agreeing your ideas.

He's just pointing out the simularity to what might be an embarassing name.

He's got a good point, though. "I - unick". It would work if the emphasis when you speak it was on the "i" (which would make it sound closer to "unique"), but not if the emphasis is on the "u".

Sorry to come accross that way, dude, thats not my intention.

Like ESN says - I am trying to point out a potentially embarrasing situation. It doesn't matter what letter you put in front, the similarity is still there!

For example, you wouldn't call a console 'fart' even if it had another letter infront, like 'i-fart' or 'e-fart' .

Not trying to put you down, just pointing out that you may not have seen the similarity between unic and eunuch . To tell you the truth - at first I thought that you DID know that it was similar, and that you were doing it as a joke!
