Actually, I wouldn't think it a bad thing for a release named Bernhardt.
Why? Because the very first fedora was designed to be part of costume
for Sarah Bernhardt in the play Fedora in 1882 and started out strictly
as a woman's hat. Later, of course, in the 1920s and 30s, it became
popular among politicians and gangsters. I doubt very many people would
vote for it, but it'd be a neat thing to suggest.
