There are obviously attempts to make distros appealing based on the name; hence 'Puppy Linux', 'Green Frog Linux' (anyone remember that?), 'Yellow Dog Linux', etc. Why shouldn't people choose a distro based on a name? After all, "Run A Spear Through Your Guts Linux" would seem to have a grimness and loathing built into it, and even if it were the best thing since sliced bread it may not get a lot of following.
