Benzinga: Benzinga asked to be roasted by Wendy’s and found itself on the receiving end of a common misconception of the company’s name. The name Benzinga comes from company founder and CEO Jason Raznick.

“It’s a made up word,” Raznick said recalling how him and his grandfather used to create words together. “(I) went to a speech tutor, made up words.”

Benzinga has become a well-known brand across many verticals including financial news, financial events, cannabis news and the evolving world of cryptocurrency.

Raznick said the company wanted a name that didn’t have other meanings. So while Sheldon Cooper famously said “Bazinga!” on “The Bing Bang Theory” for years, it had nothing to do with the Benzinga company. 

is this a big bang theory thing?#NationalRoastDay
