Why do they keep avoiding your name, Alexa? What’s the deal?

Four ferrets discuss the business's latest news. "Where are we on the store's Christmas and Hanukkah donations, She-who-must-not-be-named?"
A spiky-haired ferret responds, "We've donated eleven tubes to the tubeless, five shiny toys for underprivileged ferret kits, and a hammock."
Turning to Garrett the ferret, the first mustelid mentions, "You-Know-Who also helped dig some tunnels for some disabled ferrets."
"Thanks for your hard work, She-who-must-not-be-named." gratifies another ferret.
Garrett the ferret inquires, "Where did you dig the tunnels, Alexa?"
The spiky-haired ferret glances mischievously at Garrett, "By a scary-looking eagle statue-"
Suddenly an Alexa smart speaker behind them notifies the room, "Okay, buying a scary-looking eagle statue."
"THIS IS WHY WE DON'T SAY HER NAME!" is yelled off-camera.

you do know you can change her wake word?
As if a business of ferrets could agree on a name. They can at least agree on “Not Alexa”.
…unfortunately, an Alexa device can only use the names “Alexa”, “Echo”, “Amazon”, or “Computer”. As a company that uses computers and is a third-party seller on Amazon, “Echo” is the only option for us besides “Alexa”. Thankfully in real life, we don’t have a co-worker named “Alexa”.
I was hoping they supported other names by now. I want to call my Fire tablet “Toaster”.
What’s up man! You should get in contact with me! It’s been a while!
HAHA!
Alexa was doing very well in my home – until I told her to go f herself. Then things got REALLY interesting.
