I'm afraid a Zuvet is a veterinarian who works at the zoo.

Nuvet is a shitmanteau and a lousy mark. And everything new now is soon old, so "new" marks inevitably become stale IMO. TRYP could fail if pronounced by German speakers where it'd be "troop"; it also reminds me of the hotel STAY we stayed at in Copenhagen - broadly descriptive and difficult to remember.

I have another thought on Navier (though I DEFINITELY want to pronounce it "navy-er"): "Navire" is "ship" in French. OTOH I don't care what they call it so long as it improves the travel to Bay Area airports.
