It seems to be coming more common in Asia and Europe, and it isn't unheard of in North America either. The Green Bay Packers for example were named after a company, although the company no longer exists. The Windsor Spitfires are another.

Modern arena’s are built by taxpayer money for the disproportionate benefit of corporations so it makes sense that the teams would be named after corporations. Plus it is another revenue stream, which is the most important thing.
