The name "devuan" has been selected cause it's a merge of "debian" and "VUA" where "VUA" stand for "Veteran Unix Admins", the name of the group that started the fork.
It has to be pronounced as this: http://danex.nexlab.it/devuan.wav http://danex.nexlab.it/devuan.wav
The first release has been named "jessie" cause it's a 1:1 replacement of debian jessie, and for our luck jessie is also a name of a minor planet, so, it match our nomenclature and reflect that is a very close path to switch from debian jessie, as Devuan consider itself the "real" continuation of debian after wheezy.
