There is one smart tactic that I will use in this case. Sometimes it works sometimes not, depends on how clever the company manager is.
You can send them an official mail where you explain how they are using your company name and how they will meet yor advocates if they do not stop in let’s say 7 days.
Hope this will help.

If that’s the case, they are doing a really sleazy thing.

I might add one thing though that is closely related to the topic regarding naming conventions of these new Web2.0 companies and products, one of the main advantages of having your product/company named e.g. “shabang” lies in it’s uniqueness, later come the humorous connotations and this and that, but that’s the main thing. I mean — flickr — can there be any other? I don’t think so.

Mind the portfolio, what if someone shares his negative experiences about the website that he contracted WeBurza to do? :(

People don’t always share experiences in written form…

Not claiming to be David Carson or anything, but I second the first comment:)

Well, at least they spelt it different. My personal design studio has been named Frish for several years now. Recently someone decided to start a similar company, under the name Frish Media.

It’s just a shame… why would someone not search first before registering a company name if they have good intentions?

And it’s not like frish is such a common name…
