    If they are still keen on that name try a hyphen: Air-Achnid

    I'd like to know more about what this "ex-Airachnid" thing even is. If it's Spider-like and has a stupider name, I'l probably refer to it as "Airachnid" regardless.

    I wasn't fond of the name Airachnid to begin with, but that's a really dumb reason to deny the trademark!

    What, you can't get something trademarked if it "kinda sounds like" another trademark???

    Besides, Arachnoid would sound like Uh-Rack-Noyd
    whereas Airachnid would sound like Ær-Ack-Nid
    They don't even rhyme!

    What a load.

    Wow! All that talk came to nothing... :lol  I'm sure they'll think of some other similar-sounding name & the subsequent character will probably be some massive disappoint... :lol
