    “Tim Onion” is so clever due to it’s visual resemblance of “The Onion”.

    “Tim” and “The” have the same visual profile (width/ height distribution and curved letters), so if you squint your eyes, they look very similar.

        I can see some merit to making CEOs change their legal last name to whatever company they’re the head of.

        Tim Boeing would be a lot more noticable in the public world.

        To prevent private equity from doing their shell company nonsense to hide accountability, just double-barrel (n many times) all the companies together in the last name.
