I wouldn't really call the Wii U a bad name... but at the same time it is. If there was no Wii then the name would be fine but the fact that the Wii existed, made the name Wii U bad. Nintendo wanted to try and use the Wii name again thinking that it would have a surge of sales just like the Wii did but it obviously failed.
