Think of the "extensive logic" they used when they came up with the name "Beagle Board" and then go from there.. ;-)
There are a lot of nonsensical names given to computer related "things" simply to make them unique. My rule is: If you spend a lot of time trying to figure out the logic behind these names, you have likely spent more time than the person who came up with the name in the first place.. :-) For instance; Arduino. Tell someone who is computer illiterate that you bought an Arduino and watch their face. And why would a name of "Adafruit" be a good name for a website and a company??
