I see your point. But this depends on how you pronounce LegOz...
Is it "Lego <break> Oz" or "Leg - Oz"? Unless you pronounce "Oz" to make it
sound like "oats", neither way should be a problem...
Usually, when combining words like that, it's best to pronounce them doubly
(i.e. "Lego-Oz") so that both meanings are obvious from the name.

Until I started frequenting on lugnet, I didn't now that Aus = Oz... when I
first saw "James from Oz" I thought he was talking about the yellow-brick-road
country. (And hey, we have yellow bricks in lego - it made perfect sense! ;-)
