It'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 Netherlands and if accepted another presentation at J & 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.
