In light of the recent civil suit against PA for infringement on a trademark, they will soon need a new name for their imprint. Here's our opportunity to suggest some new names for them to consider as a replacement.

To get the ball rolling, they might want to consider, British Writers We Cheated. ;)

Whatever it is, it should have the word "wankers" in it for truth in advertising...

If they want to keep the imprint sounding like America (note "Icelandica") it should be "PublishAngloSaxonica"

I'll give credit to Memphis Ed over in the NEPAT for being the inspiration for this one:

The perfect brandname has already been taken -- FUK (http://www.fuk.co.uk/).

Just because a brandname is taken won't slow down our pals at PA.

How about FUKA, then?

Here's one they could use if they wanted to keep the PB initials. They should, however, change their official address to use this - since they don't actually own anything in either country, it's not like that would be a big expense. Then they could announce that their operation in the Isles has moved to Ireland and become PublishBlarney.
