You need to get out more. :-)

Over the last few months I have seen several references to
your browser as "Firebird" from people that have nothing to
do with your project. They were not developers so they had
no reason to be using a development "code name", they appear
to have just picked up on the name so widely (and wrongly)
used by Mozilla associated websites and articles.

So damage has happened, more will happen while this problem
is allowed to continue. IMO it was naive to expect that this
would not happen.
