Xfinity is more about FiOS and U-verse

The move to Xfinity is more about battling well established brands from Comcast competitors like FiOS and U-verss. Telcos have done a better job in branding their product suite. Comcast hopes they can now coalesce their products around Xfinity and take on the FiOS and U-verse brands more effectively.

I don't care for the name, but a solid brand name isn't a bad idea.

I recall, back when I worked for them, talking to people who were there for the early days of the @home transition. The only name they had was "Comcast High-Speed Internet", thus abbreviated to CHSI. Not a good brand name to use given the number of people who would pronounce that acronym as "cheesy".

"Would you be interested in our cheesy internet service?"

Not that Ex-Finity is any easier to pronounce (I give it 1 week before half their customer base is calling it X-Infinity).

1 brand might be good. Instead of HSI for internet and CDV for Comcast VOIP, an Xfinity brand could be used to market against Verizon & AT&T and their product suites. But I don't think existing customers will care. This is probably about marketing campaigns to other companies customers.

Now that Comcast is also going for quadruple play opportunities by adding wireless cell access, I guess we will hear about Xfinity Wireless as well.
