MICROSOFT USE THE LUMIA, NOT MICROSOFT BRAND ON THEIR SMARTPHONES


As the Microsoft is going to remove Nokia brand name form its Smartphones and Tablets, what will be the name displayed on the Smartphones and tablets. 
As some of the early leaks shows that Microsoft is going to us "Microsoft" as a brand name on it's smartphones and tablets. 



But a petition is asking Microsoft to reconsider. 
Unlike most petitions, which suggest Microsoft retain the Nokia brand (which in the end does not belong to them), Ingi0m4r suggests Microsoft use  the Lumia brand instead, saying: 
    
"The Branding of the Microsoft phones should say Lumia in front not Microsoft. It looks really ugly and the name is too long. Lumia is just right and its a cool name." 

It is certainly debatable whether the Microsoft name front and center on a handset will encourage or actually discourage sales, but it is certainly not a fresh and youthful brand, and may be more suitable for business focused handsets than the cheaper devices which are selling the best. 
What do our readers think of this suggestion?
