I've heard that car companies will register several alternate spellings in order to prevent someone else from using it.
I dunno about numbers, but I heard this w.r.t. the Ford Sierra. GM had registered that name as a variant of the Cutlass Cierra. So Ford had to call the car Merkur XR4ti...
I like the idea that Aero sounds like arrow, which is -ya'know- a VECTOR. (I wonder if anyone planned that.)
