Yeah they are taken, I meant a name of that kind, rather than an already existing word that is pretty common too

Slack is an existing word that's pretty common word, though, which was my point.

So are Zoom, Medium, Apple, Windows, Segment, etc. We just don't remember that sometimes, because the company has redefined the word.

No, it's just that I'm not a native English speaker, I'm realizing just now that I checked on WordReference that "slack" is an existing word

Ah, apologizes then! Didn’t realize you weren’t a native speaker at all :) in that case, I can see it seeming like a made up word!
