    E, F, G, and H are already taken. It's hard to say whether I is available, or un-googleable. J through W are also taken. X++ is taken, but X seems to be available. Y and Z are taken. A would be an excellent choice were it not completely un-googleable. Finally, B is a famous precursor to C.

        The ultimate language will be TPL (the programming language)

          TUPL, no? Even better if it only worked with tuples.

          til chatGPT renames itself "I, programming language" which is extra clever because the "boot" button on early IBM mainframes was labelled IPL "initial program load".

  Digital Mars was an awesome name. OpenD is not that awesome.
