Oh my goodness.... Well, I had no idea the word was offensive. Is midget a bad word now? Seriously, I am older than a lot of you. I need to know these things. Word meanings seem to change as time goes by. I certainly had no thought of any person or group of people when I was trying to think of a cute name for the product...
Merriam-Webster
midg·et
noun, often attributive \ˈmi-jət\
Definition of MIDGET
1: something (as an animal) much smaller than usual
2: sometimes offensive : a very small person; specifically : a person of unusually small size who is physically well-proportioned
3: a front-engine, single-seat, open-wheel racing car smaller and of less engine displacement than standard cars of the type
Examples of MIDGET
<a breed that is the midget of the horse world>
Antonyms: behemoth, colossus, giant, jumbo, leviathan, mammoth, monster, titan
So, if I used an antonym such as Giant....does that mean that the Large People (sorry don't know the socially conscious word for large person), but if I used it to define something very large..... would the large people be upset? I wonder if they still have those sport cars around...
I need to know because everyone that knows me, knows that I would never be offensive purposely to anyone for any reason.

with apologies for possibly disrupting thread, I promise it was not my intention, just wanted to answer this and get an answer in return.
