I preferred "P" because of the BCPL ancestor. If BCPL begat "B" and "B" begat "C", then "C" should have begatten "P". Not sure if begatten is a word :)

  It's "begotten" or "begot". :)

  BCPL is short of Bootstrap CPL, given its initial purpose, the fact it took off on its own was not planned.

    Most good ideas never are.
