How about anything with "revenge" in the name!

Riddlers Revenge
Phantoms Revenge
Any More?
To be honest, I prefer unique names to those that are repeated at different parks. I can see the press appeal to chain parks like Six Flags and Paramount, though, because those sorts of names will attract people that are familiar with the similarly named coaster at their home park. But if I recall, some parks (CP at least) trademark names: Raptor and Millenium Force both, and I don't know what else.

HEY PEOPLE... Its just how the industy works.

Back in the Golden Ages there were hundreds of names like:
Switchback Railway
Big Dipper
Racer
Cyclone
Roller Coaster
Comet
Wildcat
Rocket

I just don't see why people worry about a name so much.
Many of these coasters were factory names like "Boomerang" "Wild Mouse" or "Corkscrew"

And the reason that companies make mulitple attractions throughout their parks like PowerTower, Viper or Batman is to lower the cost of design, printed promotions, signage and commercials. Deja Vu will most likely run the same ad in 3 different states. Thats A LOT of $ saved kids.
