Over the years, we’ve always had people ask us how we came up with the name. It happened back in 2000 when I was trying to find a name for the company.
I was at a lake feeding ducks with breadcrumbs. There was one duck who had a mohawk, just like my logo. He was busy eating. After 40 minutes, I got up and started to leave. As I was throwing the last breadcrumbs into the lake, he would still charge over to get to the food. I looked at him, thinking “how can you still be hungry, you’ve been eating the whole time?”
That night, I went home and couldn’t shake the image off the head. I started playing with the words duck, mohawk, and punk rock. 6 weeks later, I named my company DuckPunk, but that’s only half the story. At the time, my justification was, since my last name is Tong, I’m always on the last or second last page by alphabetical order. So I thought I wanted my company name to be more in the front, so instead of calling it PunkDuck, I flipped the order and called it DuckPunk.
Year later, he became my inspiration. As a minority woman working in entertainment and advertising, it was very cutthroat. Every time I have to jump over a hurdle, I have to remind myself to be like him, never give up and keep going after what my heart desires. country.
