Moving from Trikke to generic name

Trikke is the name of a single manufacturing company. Should this article titled Trikke be moved to a generic name? Other language articles are titled Trikke. And if so, what name? Any of the following?

• Wiggle scooter
• Scissor scooter
• Carver scooter
• Y scooter

I did create a redirect from Wiggle scooter before I realised Trikke is a brand name not a generic name.--Darrelljon (talk) 10:22, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

Are there other brands? If so, please list them here. If not, then I believe the current name should remain, just as with Segway. -AndrewDressel (talk) 16:15, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

• Y-Volution Fliker

• Aodi
• Razor DeltaWing
• MHStar Homcom Speeder

Trikke → ? – Trikke is a brand name, alternative names are available Darrelljon (talk) 10:39, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

• ...Like what? The nomination statement shows no hints of specific alternatives. Steel1943 (talk) 23:42, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Wiggle scooter
  • Scissor scooter
  • Ski scooter
  • Carver scooter
  • Y scooter Darrelljon (talk) 10:04, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
• What alternative names? And why use them? The article says "All Trikkes are designed and manufactured exclusively by Trikke Tech". Mikus (talk) 04:13, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Many companies manufacture these products too, not just trikke, flikr may well be as notable as trikke. One of the generic names; wiggle scooter, scissor scooter, ski scooter, carver scooter, y scooter as article title has many more sources, and is likely to read less like an advertisement than the article with trikke as the title.--Darrelljon (talk) 13:44, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
