>Just to be fair, C is also a horrible name. On the other end of the spectrum - Julia and Rust are excellent names for a programming language because they're unique in the context of programming.
Funny enough I most often get wrong results when googling something Rust related, because there's a town called Rust (Germany), so Google pushes the location based results up, and rust is also, well, oxidized metal, so sometimes I get DIY pages as a result.
I love pretty much every other design decision about Rust, but it's the one "hard" to Google language in my experience.
