I suspect you have the order of things reversed. It is likely that they chose that as a name they could trademark. "Solder wick" could not be trademarked as it is a term in general use. I don't know if I'm an "oldie" at 48 (wish me a happy birthday, today is mine), but I knew some ham radio operators when I was in high school. Some of them were in their 70s (this was also in the '70s for symmetry) and all of them pronounced it with a silent "l". Now let's talk about something more on topic...
