named after the engineer that designed it: Carl Concelman.

http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/BNC says: "The Bayonet Neill-Concelman
(sometimes wrongly called the British Naval Connector)". It goes on
to talk about the inventors.
Another web page said "Barrel Nose Connector" but this seems less
likely.
