A Vodafone-nak állítólag ebből ered a neve: voice data fone. A Vodafone nem angol cég? Akkor hogy-hogy nem Vodaphone a cég neve?

Én úgy tudom, hogy orosz eredetű és a "vodka-fon" rövidítése.

Mert !fone!tikusan írták a nevébe

The name’s meaning of this internationally recognized brand seizes three words which are of significant importance for the industry. The short explanation could be described with the naming formula “voice+data+phone”. These three words truly inspired Saatchi & Saatchi (the advertising agency) and one of the company’s original directors. It’s the agency’s idea of spelling phone as “fone” which at first wasn’t accepted very well by the then CEO of Vodafone. Eventually he had change of heart and came to recognize the name “Vodafone” as a masterstroke.
