And found out that not only was there a slikstik (yes spelling is exactly the same) joystick for the c64, but also a line of dart shafts referred to as slikstiks.
Here's a pic with a c64 slikstik in it:

Here's a link to the dart shafts:

I doubt anyone will really give the ppl making the joystick formerly known as romboxx a hard time though; evidently there wasn't any conflict between these two uses.
Having entered some pretty good, original names into the contest myself though, I must say "Shame on you!" to the guy who won by lifting the name from an old c64 controller.
