One person was blogging about the sign above. A friend had taken the picture for him so he could ponder why the store decided to spell the name as shown. He referred it to a burger chain called In-N-Out. Both of the names relate a sense of speed for their customers. The man was still concerned about the spelling of the first store, so he looked up when and how they got the name for it. He found that the name was brought about by its owners W.A. Krause and T.S. Gentle. They developed this name in 1969, when people were trying to use catchy names to show that their business would later lead to success. If this store decided to become a chain, I think that the word could become an eponym if people decided to start saying kum instead of come.
