The noun hiding in that word is 'gator'. It seems obvious to me that both brands have jumped on this. I doubt there is anything more to it than that. So instead of jumping to conclusions, lets rather congratulate the Regator guys on a good-looking site :) Both Afrigator and Regator derive their names from ‘Aggregator’.

I am one of the co-founders of Regator. We're sorry you feel upset about this, but we had not even heard of afrigator until reading these comments. really. The reason we are called regator is because it a shortened form of agg-"regator" (that and the domain was available). The alligator made an obvious mascot and they are green so we chose a palate to match. I can honestly say that it is pure coincidence... and we are sorry if we have offended anyone. It was not our intent. Ali Sabet - thanks for the compliment on the mascot illustration that was drawn by us! Hi! I am one of the co-founders of Regator.
