It's all I can think about when I hear the results of Emaar Properties fountain naming contest. There were 4,000 entries and the prize was 100,000 dirhams (about $35,000 Cdn). The winning name of that thing flowing water outside the Burj Dubai? The one that will be, I imagine, a bit like the fountain outside the Bellagio in Vegas?
Dubai Fountain.
