You said, "You don't have to be a rocket scientist to name it at least correctly "Gabber", or something even more appealing." So, I was correct to infer you meant Gabber is more correct.

Twitter was chosen because it's insinuates a hot topic; it's "atwitter." The bird icon and "tweeting" complimented the term.

Ending anything with an insult does nothing but make the author feel better about himself and always backfires, especially when the author is attempting intellectual superiority with a pedantic cliche.

Twitter means simply twitter. You are overemotional and making stuff up. Have you ever been diagnosed with psychological disbalance, like psychosis by any chance?

You're driving me toward it!! (Haha)

Dorsey has explained the origin of the "Twitter" title:

...we came across the word 'twitter', and it was just perfect. The definition was 'a short burst of inconsequential information,' and 'chirps from birds'. And that's exactly what the product was.[24]
