Mith Pirlte and the oompaloompaIt's a busy time in the Joomla! event calendar right now and I'm busy preparing to make two presentations at Joomla!Days in The NetherlandsJoomla!Days in The Netherlands and if accepted another presentation at J & BeyondJ & Beyond.

I probably made a rod for my own back with last years Hidden Secrets presentation as I have a lot to live up to this year.

I considered making a "Hidden Secrets Part 2" but in the end settled on "What's in a name".

Hopefully I'll be able to explain where the name Joomla! comes from, what it could have been instead, why we have the ! at the end and some lessons learnt that might help you choosing a name for your company, product or child.

So why the picture of fellow Joomla! co-founder Mitch Pirtle and the Oompa-LoompasOompa-Loompas?

For the answer to that and other questions you'll just have to be there.
