My favorite coffee name so far is definitely Urino Decaffeinato

#7Just a quick thought, while I'm sipping my Schiatondont Lungo Decaffeinato: You could make the "give me a coffee name" button larger. Also some space after the button would make it look nicer, I think.

#8After having had a similar discussion about that with a colleague from Italy last week, I just had to forward this to her and her Data Science team.
Especially the "Angered Italians (AI) Recurrent Neural Network" made me (and hopefully her) crack up.

I agree. It was a great lunch time past time. I loved it.
Reminded me of "Tech Names as a service" from Vincent Warmerdam on pyData 2017 (Berlin) [1].

#10We somehow came out with AI (Angered Italians) with the Americano:
The term "caffè Americano" specifically is Italian for "American coffee". There is a popular, but unconfirmed, belief that the name has its origins in World War II when American G.I.s in Italy would dilute espresso with hot water to approximate the coffee to which they were accustomed."
