The back story or this decision is weird, but true. The first company that Chip sold was a skateboard brand called Homeless. The Japanese liked it because it has an L in the name ( at least that’s what Chip believes ). Japanese people have a hard time pronouncing the letter L or words with L because it’s not in their vocabulary.
So Chip thought, the next time I have a company, I am going to name it with three L’s and maybe get three times the money.
