Food, Drink & Dining Out Coke cans with your name on it.

[WeetBixKid]

will appeal to the same ******s who think it's funny stealing street signs with their name on it. Which is most people 14 - 20. so a nice move by coke.

 

[Scully2Folau]

Buy buy buy!!

The company I work for prints the labels for the 390mL, 450mL and 600mL bottles.

BUY!

hahaha

 

[WALL-e]

Off to buy 2L bottle

 

[Lets Roar like '44]

I love the tweens these days buying the coke and plastering all over facebook as if Coke deliberately made THAT bottle just for them. Heres a tip noobs, your not the only Kelly or Steve out there.

Well done Coke, as if you needed to sell more bottles anyway but what the hell, the more money the better!

 

[Eth]

My name's not on there either, and it's hardly uncommon. Some real shockers on that list.

Anyway, it's a fantastic promo from Coke's point of view.

My mate took a photo and uploaded to FB without me knowing.

I assume you will be able to get Bort.

You can now

 

[tb_fanboy]

EMERGENCY!!!! We're out of Bort cokes!

 

[Cruyff14]

Coke is shit

 

[Tigerdrive]

You can now

My son is also named Bort!

 

[Happy_Neale]

No way is LA Ice better than Pepsi, LA tastes like homebrand cola, yuk...

There's something about that low budget taste that I love. Better than Pepsi IMO.

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

Why do they have Rachael and Rachel?

Guess they need to pander to unique spellings (Shaun/Sean, Catherine/Kath/Kate, John/Jonathan).

They have been efficient in some areas by providing shortened names that can cover 2 different names, like Mel, but should have done it also with Dan (no need for Danielle) and Jess (no need for Jesse). Could have even had Rach instead of the two different Rach(a)el's.

I'm surprised my name is on there. Growing up you could never find anything with my name on it, and yet now it's everywhere.

Couldn't really give a shit about it being on a Coke bottle, though. Horrid stuff.

jorel6669 is a very unique name

Aarav? Is that you?

 

[BigKahunaBlue]

Anybody else think that in a country which wants to be multicultural that the majority of the names are anglo or bogan with a few token ethnic names?

I personally think it's hidden racism from coke, but then again Australia still has a huge under current of racism going on, especially in regional places.

You will never find my name on those cans..and really why do you need to feel special by having a coke can with your name on it?

SHEEPLE!

BTW i came across this comment the other day online:

"I like aussies but i find it hard to take them serious when they pretend that they don't employ apartheid methods" thats in relation to our indigenous brothers and sisters.

 

[THRILLHO]

Hidden racism. Sure, why not?

I mean, that's much more likely than Coke's marketing and research team analysing the demographics of people buying their product and in conjunction with a list of the most popular names in Australia creating a list of 150 names that are most likely to correlate with the names of their consumers.

But yeah, you're right. It's racist because there's no Habib bottle.

Some of the biggest coke drinkers i know are wogs and dont have anglo names.

But hey this campaign is only for white australians.

Where are the aboriginal names?

 

[THRILLHO]

Now who's being racist?

What's an Aboriginal name and why are Aboriginals only allowed to be named these so-called Aboriginal names?

Now whos trying to turn my POV into a racist one?

Where are the aboriginal names on the coke cans? Can u list one?

Or in 2011 are we still denying we have indigenous people by sending them as rural and away from mainstream australia as possible.

And by Aboriginal names, i dont mean the ones that were given to them by their adopted white parents, like Adam or Mick or Tony.

 

[coke_zero]

The supermarket I shop at has 5 shelves of coke about 10 wide 5 deep, its pretty sad to see people stripping it in search of their name!!

how is that sad? if im buying a product with names on them im not going to take one from the front ill look for my name.

saying wog is racist. and most australians would buy there fair share of coke. where as others coming here from overseas the percentage of them buying coke would be alot lower. therefore print names that people will buy.

Coke choose names which are the most common in Australia. Indigenous Australians only make up 2% of the population. Fairly obvious business decision.

How did this thread go down this road

 

[no orange peeler]

in fairness i have seen some names that i have never heard of. they looked after our kiwi expats by putting BRO on a can (no racist). be stuffed if i can find a Brett but.
