No. Surname lab is totally fine. Besides, not everybody is so privileged that others will remember their surname (which is really important for finding and citing your work anyway) if not included in lab name IMHO.https://twitter.com/emekdemir/status/1025067678023671808 …

I think no one calls labs by their real name. They’d all be “attention and memory”, “mind and pain”, “embodied cognition” lab so no one knows what they are talking about

Exactly. Those names are pompous and arrogant 90% of the time too.

I like our lab name and use it! We're the BabyBRAIN group: Baby Research on Action, Interaction and Neurocognition. If people ask who my supervisor is then I tell them her name. I don't agree that the surname way is harmful, but it is less useful if someone doesn't know your PI.

I never made the claim that all such names are bad. But I do stand by all I've said here. Glad you like your lab name and that it works well too!
