I don't think it's that important Kriss. It's an adult site and it's primarily going to be marketed to a vast number of surfers who aren't going to get it anyway. They will see the site and think 'Gothic' just like they see the SG site and think 'Gothic'.

The 1st line of it's Wiki entry reads:
SuicideGirls is a website that features softcore pornography and text profiles of GOTH, punk, and emo-styled young women who themselves are known as the "SuicideGirls".

The cheesy names give it a nice touch and one that a vanilla surfer would probably expect, that feeds into his fantasy or idea better. Looking at the SG Girls page you see similiar names, maybe just not as completely.

This is really a 'gother-than-thou' argument anyway. The conversions speak for themselves and if they give a new tour a run I hope they switch back if the conversions don't improve.
