- jimmux 4y agoI believe it's named after Monty Python, if that counts as people.
- cestith 4y agohttps://pythongeeks.org/what-is-python-programming-language/ https://pythongeeks.org/what-is-python-programming-language/ (among many other sources) says it's inspired by Monty Python and their show Monty Python's Flying Circus. Monty Python being a comedy troupe similar to Broken Lizard or Kids in the Hall, I thought they'd qualify squarely as a group of people. Note the language itself is highly influenced by Modula-3 and ABC. ABC was a form of Basic not to many people remember these days that among its features had significant leading whitespace for statement grouping. So you can't blame/credit Guido entirely for that one.
