An Entity Named "Sue"?

Recently, I proposed that it may be a Sisyphean job to get courts to recognize that a limited liability company is not a limited liability corporation much less a corporation.  Judicial confusion over nomenclature has been a favorite topic of Professor Joshua Fershee.  While he is willing to continue the struggle, he recently proposed a number of alternative names, many of which are quite creative and would certainly reduce the risk of confusion.  However, I don't expect that California will be renaming the California Revised Uniform Limited Liability Company Act (CARULLCA) any time soon.  Therefore, we should the fight for accuracy in nomenclature.  After all, the Hundred Years War wasn't won in a day (and lasted longer than 100 years).
