The world's largest retail chain is teaming up with E&J Gallo Winery of Modesto, Calif., to produce the spirits at an affordable price; in the $6-8 range.While wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to throw a bottle of Walmart brand wine into their shopping carts, there is a market for inexpensive wine, said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at Roger Williams University in Bristol, R.I. She said: "The right name is important." So, with that in mind, here are the top 12 suggested names for Walmart

12. Chateau Traileur Doublewide

Gallo has certainly made its mark by destroying the natural environment for the construction of industrial vineyards and wine factories in Sonoma County. After witnessing the conversion of redwood forests and oak woodlands to industrial vineyards, massive erosion from removal of entire mountains and siltation of pristine salmon spawning steams from Gallo's gigantic earthmoving equipment concerned neighbors have suggested the following names:

-Butcher the Redwoodsfindel
-Fishkill red
-Dead Mountain Burgundy
-Pinot Sewerwater Noir
-Wrath of grape Merlot
-Grape Rape Zin
