So this one is a fun answer; back when the game was live, there were 3 regional servers. Overbuild, Exeter and Storm. Vanda Darkflame, the fourth faction leader, didn't get a server with her name. We decided we'd change that and name our project like it was the 4th server that never was.
On topic, I'd say this was an incredibly sad episode. The game was shut down too early and LEGO knows it was a mistake, just like the players did when it happened. I was surprised to hear actual subscriber totals being shared and shocked that they threw away so many subscriptions.
