Well, why not go with the current marketing flow-
 Mellotron ME
 MY Mellotron, My'Tron, MyDigitron
 'Tron2010
 and the worst-  Better'Tron
 
Absolutely nothing stops Madison Avenue from going absurd.

Well that's no good. They obviously did it to PISS YOU OFF! Now that you are not, they look rather silly.
A tit for tat thing...
Streetly M4000 mellotron

Sheesh,
To me, it is like saying that the MKVI and MKVII models are obsolete and doomed to irrelevance.
MKXXXIX - D100 Mellotron/Chamberli n/Optagon, is a much more logical choice; why didn't they think of this??
