I think it is odd how the cultures from far east differ from ours. They
like too much words like felicity, luck, lucky, etc. related to business
(LG Electronics was once Lucky Goldstar). In Japan they have the Felica
(Felicity Card).

I must confess that seeing "Lucky", "Happiness" or "Felicity" in a
company's name arises me a little prejudice.
