"Lumpy" is registered. Cadeaux and Bijoux (aside from being French
plurals for gifts and jewels) are not. The name of any one is
always supposed to be "Lumpy_<prodname>" where that underscore
represents a single space. The trademark and the prodname may
not be closed up (LumpyBijoux), nor should other punctuation
be introduced, with the exception of the (r) registered symbol
at first mention. In that case, the circle-R becomes part of
"Lumpy" and then there's the space and the product name.

It's just the one toolkit that is shipped with either of those
two products, which are very similar, but one has a feature
that makes it address a specific (higher-end) market
niche... and pocket-book.
