There is also someone trying to get recognition for the "new breed" of Labradoodles. Originally bred for the serious purpose of providing a guide dog for a woman with severe dog allergies since poodles are non allergenic. Hard to take seriously with that name though.
Some frankenwords do describe a combination of things that is different than the sum of its parts. Like smog - it is neither smoke nor fog. Brunch too is so much more than a combination of breakfast and lunch. What I object to is the making up of cute combinations for things that don't need a word of there own. A piece of bread and cheese at 3:30 is a snack not a lupper.
