Operational names – no imagination?

Recent operations have had names such as Enduring Freedom, Provide Hope, Provide Comfort, Just Cause, etc. Seems to me that operations from WW2 through Vietnam had much more original sounding names like Overlord, Torch, Masher/Whitewing, Nevada Eagle, Olympic, Iceberg, Rolling Thunder, Linebacker, etc. More kinder, gentler era?
