I didn’t have any trouble recognizing the meaning of the name, I just thought it was sort of silly. Could just as easily have been DataCement.
Names like this are just too reminiscent of twisted, made up names like “Advertorial” for when a publication takes money to write about your product, or “Infomercial” for what is nothing but a long-winded commercial masquerading as entertainment.
But this is just my opinion. Plenty of you seem to like the name and that’s all that matters. The only wrong solution is the one rejected by the marketplace.

Exactly, Dominik. And -
Surfulater = Surf +You + Later
...again, a rather odd message to be conveying. This is not to ridicule the products, which both come from excellent companies. Rather, it just shows how difficult it is to choose a name that is at the same time memorable and convincing. Remember “Miss Lonely Notes”?

DataCement: Great Joke!
Still laughing…
But even is sounds ridiculous: It is really a unique name.
