ACME is actually better, because you can say or read it in under 5 business days.

I've heard people say "Eczema Script" in jest.

ECMAScript is a horrible name. It's worse than Google Bard.

it sounds like eczema - naming your programming language after a skin condition is not a great choice

nothing against people with eczema of course

Call it "Jay Ess". Everyone does already.

POJO is one of my favorite acronyms. Along with POTS and COTS.

POTS = Plain Old Telephony System COTS = Commercial Off-The-Shelf

> POTS = Plain Old Telephony System I worked for NY Telephone for years in the '80s, and it was referred to there as "Plain Old Telephone Service" not System. Not that it's a big deal at this point!

I started my career as a telecom tech in the mid Atlantic (late 90's) and can confirm it was that for me too

My understanding is that the Service was provided by the System.

I was in the ballpark!

> Might as well call it ACMEScript considering how willie e. coyote it feels to develop with it...

And it would feel just the same if it was named something else.

It's just a name, who gives a damn?

> It's just a name, who gives a damn?

This is extremely ironic given that JavaScript was so named because people do give a damn about names so Netscape/Sun leveraged the Java success to push JS, hence they named it JAVAscript despite it having nothing to do with Java.
