Rebranding Driven by Pronunciation Challenges: The Story of Ooni
Uuni was a brand known for its innovative pizza ovens and commitment to its community. However, the company faced a problem: people were mispronouncing its name. A name that is difficult to pronounce can hinder organic growth and brand recognition. Problematic spelling led to frequent autocorrects, diverting potential customers elsewhere. Uuni took a bold step by choosing a name that was phonetically similar but more intuitive to spell and pronounce: Ooni. From the name change to the acquisition of the new domain Ooni.com, every step was aimed at making the brand more accessible and authoritative.
