I honestly can't find the source of this, but I recall reading that Turing was against mnemonic assemblers (as they would consume scarce resources). Its understandable given the computers of the time. But I suspect that at some point, you'll probably want to talk about quality, which so many programmers have discussed. David Parnas would be a more suitable candidate, if you really want to name it after someone. But I'd like to point out that you may not want to name the oath after a person unless they are involved in drafting it. Dijkstra, for example, spoke frequently on the topic of being ethical as a programmer / professor. Out of respect, I would never name something like this after him unless I could back up every word with his various papers.
