This chain store is called Starbucks.
The chain began in Seattle, US, as just one small coffee shop.
The US store chain named after the first mate in Moby Dick is "Starbucks." The company was named after a character in Herman Melville's novel as a nod to its Seattle roots and its commitment to maritime tradition.
In Australia, a retail outlet called Dick Smith's is a widely recognised electronics chain.
"Starbucks" is named after the Pequod's first mate Starbuck .
Ahab was the captain of the Pequod, the whaling ship in Moby Dick. The crew was simply the crew. Interesting aside: the coffee chain Starbuck's, was named after Capt. Ahab's First Officer.
