Where Does the Name "Sentria" Originate? (Kirby) |

Where did Kirby get the name Sentria from? What does it even mean?
The older series of models (from Sanitronic to Generation series) sound more logical to me. Sanitronic sounds logical (it means what it says--a sanitation system). The Classic series (Classic, Classic Omega, Classic III, Tradition, Heritage, Heritage II, Heritage II Legend, and Legend II) tend to evoke (to me at least) a sense of looking back on history, tradition, heritage, etc. The Generation series names sound logical to me too (evoking a new generation of models). However, the Sentria name stumps me. What does "Sentria" mean? Why the name? And how will Kirby come up with the name for its rumoured new model? Is there a name for it established yet? | ||

It comes from Sent us who was the Roman god of shifty sales people. | ||

No such word in dictionary...
It appears that the word "sentria" does not exist in the Oxford English Dictionary (or any other dictionary I've tried online), nor does it exist in Wikipedia (outside of the Kirby Company entry).
The only non-Kirby mention of "sentria" is someone's name on LinkedIn. So is this a name Kirby made up? | ||

What if "Sentria" is a spin-off of "Century"? The Sentira was the first "new" model of the 21st century, after all.
