My PCs have decided that they're never going to get anywhere with marketing a colony on a place called "The Isle of Dread." They toyed with the name "The Isle of Fortune" for a while, but finally decided to rename it "Freedom Island."
They've also renamed the terror birds "freedom birds." One of my players is a freelance artist, and he's busy making cosmetic changes to the Isle of Dre--I mean, to the map of Freedom Island. They're putting a parasail behind the pterodactyl, a saddle on the T-rex (with a guy waving a cowboy hat on its back) and bungee jumpers/base divers leaping beneath the rocs (who are there to catch anyone who makes a bad jump). Also the chick with the spear is becoming a mermaid with a huge bouquet of flowers.
Just thought I'd share.

I believe you are taking this in the wrong direction. The name Isle of Dread gives value to anything that comes from it. Its mystery adds to the market value of any merchandise you are going to sell. For example look at the value of the Blood Diamond. In and of itself is against the law in most countries, yet in other markets it surpasses any other diamond. Keep the name Isle of Dread it will bring riches and even more adventuer seekers.
