The name sounds childish, I wonder what people in charge of buying processors for datacenters think about it.
Intel's new Gold/Platinum branding also sounds childish to me.
Personally I don't find it as childish as EPYC, but it seems like a unnecessary change. The previous naming scheme seemed to have worked just fine for Intel.
AMD on the other hand probably needed a clean break since they were behind for a decade.
What do you think about the name EPYC? Will that name harm the adoption in the datacenter? Is maybe the WoW generation now in charge which has no problems with more fancy names, which I can see happen with more conservative older people?

head shake at the downvotes. HN get's sillier by the day.
