Classic case study was the Chevy Nova having dismal sales throughout South America.

Turns out no one at Ford knew Nova means "doesn't run" in Spanish.

This isn't an unfortunate product name, but people thought the A&W one-third pounder had less meat than McDonald's quarter pounder, so it didn't get a lot of sales because people were bad at fractions.

The Aussies finally caved on COON cheese and renamed it.

Marketed from 1931 as Red Coon; from 1959 as Coon; from 2021 as Cheer

It's the baggage scanner used by TSA in airports... or a suppository.

CNN is an enemy of the state and should be treated as such.

Not a product, but there was a property manager back in the 80's called Property Management Services with a big PMS on their business cards and called themselves PMS for short. Even more on point, they were all a bunch of screeching biatches too. They were forced to change it to PM Realty Group (PMRG).
