Auto-name company?

That's weird...
I started a company on self made map to test some track layouts, and I
didn't fill in company name, and some time later, my company was named
"Mike's Motors"! This is a very unusual name for a game-named company,
because AI's are often like "<name> & Co.", "<town> Transport" and stuff.
Has one of you had this 'experience' before?

In TTO, these names were commonplace when on starting a new game you left
the company name and manager name blank. Here are a few names I've found:
Pannick and Loosit
Crash and Co.
Mike's Motors
Crush and Bump Ltd.

If you are quite a distance from a town where you build your HQ you get
names like,
Mikes Motors.
Crush and Bump transport.
Those are the 2 I have had.
There are others.

My company was called once « Transport Éclair » [here, I assume you could
translate french with a dictionnary] under TTO because I built my H.Q. in a
town where another company did already built its own so that it already a
city-name Transport » company.
