Glad you brought this up...this is a great discussion point! The most important aspect in naming a language/framework/library is the ability to Google it. The second one is being able to remember it. I think BladeRunner does both of those really well (regardless of your personal convictions about "professionalism" and distaste for the movie...)
- leggetter 13y agoIt was initially called "BladeRunner" and one of the main reasons we decided to rename it "BladeRunnerJS" was for Google. As with other JS-based solutions adding "JS" to the end clarifies it's for building JavaScript apps. We've had a lot of positive feedback about the name so all-in-all I think it was a good choice.
