Well thats what i heard... i've been trying to find the address for Bad Robot to verify it, but with all the news about the movie, it seems impossible to find something as simple as that

This is from the triva section on IMDB for the movie.

"The title "Cloverfield"; initially just a codename for the movie, is named for the boulevard in Santa Monica where the Bad Robot offices were located during the making of the film."

Also I found this on there.

"At the end of the credits, you can softly hear a voice saying "Help us," but when played backwards, says "It's still alive."

Maybe they'll do a part 2 of this, this time from the military POV.

Heres some more info on the meaning of the title.

Originally, "Cloverfield" was reported to be nothing more than an early working title, derived from the name of a street that JJ Abrams has an office on or near.

More recently, "Cloverfield" director Matt Reeves explained in a USA Today article that - within the context of the story itself - "Cloverfield" is the codename of the military operation dispatched to battle the monster.

(Cloverfield, incidentally, is the name of the military operation to stop the monster, though that's not spelled out in the film.)

(This is - according to one theory - because the three-toed creature left giant clover-shaped footprints all over Manhattan, making it look like a "field of clover," which is as good an explanation as any, although not confirmed. There are many other interesting fan-created theories for the appellation, all with credible reasoning.)
