Streetscape is totally fine, if you just want to have the same problems
again.
Rough step by step guide to finding a workable product name:
- don't do it in public
- don't use anything descriptive
- google for the name
- do an exhaustive trademark search (or rather let your fav IP counsel
do it for you)
- register the trademark in your target markets
- register the domain names
- launch the product
