Wikipedia adds some meaning, but I don't know if this is what Huawei intends: HongMeng is a character in the Daoist text Zhuangzi and a metaphor for the "primordial world, primeval chaos" in Chinese creation myths. Like many Zhuangist names, Hong Meng is a word play, translated as "Mists-of-Chaos", "Vast Obscurity", "Big Concealment", "Vital Principle", "Natural Energy" and "Big Goose Dummy".

- DiogenesKynikos 7y agoI had only seen the name in Western media, without the characters. My guess was wrong, on both the characters! 鸿 (Hóng) means "large, huge, great," and 蒙 (Méng) means "mist." "Great Mist" is not a promising name for a codebase.
