I disagree entirely and completely believe the opening was named after "King" Lenny, certainly on chess.com it was named the "bongcloud" in his honor. He was one of the most famous and beloved personalities on the chess.com forums in its early days with a hippie avatar faithfully preaching the virtues of the bongcloud. People were inspired by his message of peace and good times on a forum dominated by overly serious players. The opening itself certainly predates Lenny Bongcloud but try to find mentions of the "Bongcloud" opening before around 2008.
