Well... let's see:

The company has their arms in many pots (per the Wikipedia page: used as a debit card, an ID card, and the company selling information without permission or protection of that data).  For this, they need many arms.

They no doubt suck up a lot of cash from customers and hold on to it.  Suction cups would be good for this.

According to the Wikipedia page, the CEO tried lying outright about selling customer information, trying to 'dirty the waters' so their real actions couldn't be seen.  'Spraying ink' for camoflage.

Seems 'Octopus' was a VERY appropriate name for this company. :)

I seem to remember hearing that culturally, the Octopus is a highly respected animal in Japan, so it'd be kinda like calling it the Eagle Card or the Shark Card in the US.

Yes, but that doesn't have the potential for (attempts at) humor in it.

At any rate, "Please Present Your Octopus" would be a bad line on a first date.

I do find it hilarious that there's a subsection of tentacle porn known as "consenticles".
