Are there any other products out there that have nabbed what could be perfectly acceptable names?

I like the name Aviva, which is actually a name. But ruined by insurance.

Lenor and Ariel

We're both science teachers so we have this conversation with chemical elements rather than cleaning products-
Antimony, Argon and Xenon are good for a boy.
For a girl what about Thallium (thali for short) or Iridium?
