> I think it was called Livescript back then)?
As Encyclopedia Brittanica (!! who'd have thought) puts it,
JavaScript was developed in 1995 at Netscape Communications Corp. and was conceived of as a companion to Java. It was originally called Mocha and then LiveScript before Netscape received a marketing license from Sun.[0]
And then it became 'a dialect of ECMAScript'...
