Interestingly, Ikon was the original name chosen for the Focus. Ford changed their mind and opted for Focus instead when the Ikon name was leaked to the media.

Attracting male drivers?!?!

I don't think Phoenix or ISIS are exactly macho names!?!? Bloody marketing departments just need to justify their existance

Indeed.

Escort was just associated with rusting old wrecks... Focus was a fresh name for a VERY contraversial car when it first came out... everyone soon warmed to the radical shape and loved them (inc me)

Mondeo is also an old name and I seen the new Mondeo at the dealership at the weekend and Iosis would have suited it soooooo much better

Fiesta is a great name... keep it forever!!! Never will fade away... all these new names are crap, cheap and sound RUBBISH!!!

I liked the sound of "Phenix". Actually prefer it to "Fiesta".

Well if they do decide to ditch the fiesta name, they will only have thier selves to blame in the fall of sales!

certainly wasnt the case with the Focus though when they dropped the Escort name. Its just a name at the end of the day, think most will be bothered about the car itself - although not sure about Ikon lol
