Google made 24.7 Billion. LAST QUARTER. I think they can afford it. And I promise you, it's not a ton of money BECAUSE KitKat got an insane amount of promotional time for that.
Here, Nabisco, we will pay you $1,000,000 to use Oreo. This being .00036% of Googles QUARTERLY profits.
How do you see no value in having a fun name for your OS? Do people spend time in online forums talking about the NAME of the next Apple OS? Forums everywhere trying to guess what the next name will be. Contests. Come on... well worth .00036% of your budget. Companies pay a lot more then that for naming a stadium. (That, I think is dumb).
