  Nope, first they started with Gopher that was based on Glenda. https://9p.io/plan9/glenda.html https://9p.io/plan9/glenda.html Then because it wasn't deemed professional enough, a marketing campaign was created for the current logo. https://go.dev/blog/go-brand https://go.dev/blog/go-brand

    The Gopher is the mascot, not the logo, always has been. The original Go logo was this: https://go.dev/blog/gopher/logo.png https://go.dev/blog/gopher/logo.png

      > The circular shape of the letters hints at the eyes of the Go gopher, creating a familiar shape and allowing the mark and the mascot to pair well together.
