seriously, they named it "munch on me"? nothing double meaning came to mind when they were thinking about that name?
I dunno, I like the name, and I think a double-meaning is a bit of a stretch... Next you're going to tell me you think a restaurant site named "Eating Out" means something else...

#37A controversial name can help you in the beginning, but it can kill you branding in the longterm. (Exception: For some brands a controversial name can work, but then the whole brand has to go along)
If you pick a name like this one, you have to have the balls to build a brand and company that is controversial and provocative in every little detail.
