One of my former hair dressers started a salon with a couple of her buddies. They called it Salon Chevaux. I said to her, "shouldn't it be Salon Cheveux?" She said "no silly, chevaux means hair." I said, "um, I may be wrong, but I think it means horse."

So by the time she had done the research and tried to change the business name, they went out of business.

And to your other response, as if Day_Jay Vu isn't already mispronounced.
I knew a guy who invested money in a chain of crispy fried rabbit restaurants called Wild Horse. [Insert Penske boxed wine joke here.] This was before I knew him, but it always seemed to me that one of the obvious problems with the scheme was the choice of name.
