Frankly, I have exactly the same reaction. I abhor "My" anything. I 
think it is a symptom of My Mac background. My my.

However, on an up note, this is scheduled to be changed in a later 
release, so that the name of that folder can be assigned by the user. 
We're still early in the game with 2.7, so for now it is a hard-coded 
path but that will change.

I could not bring myself to make a folder called "My Enterprise" either, 
so what I did was copy the words from an email and paste it into a new 
folder title. Try that. It eases the pain.
