No, no, no.

Random company name cannot be used. You can either use your company
name "Allwinner Tech.", or names of individual developers "Tom Cubie"
or of your lead developer "Fabrice Bellard" (as in case of Qemu).

What is the reason, that your company wants to remove it's name from
the source code ?
