Despite the popular joke, it does not stand for "Wireless Fireless". It is analogous to an audio technology's High Fidelity shortend to Hi Fi, so it comes from Wireless Fidelity - Wi Fi.
It's not an acronym. It doesn't stand for anything.
wireless fidelity
Wireless fidelity perhaps, as hi-fi is short for high fidelity
Wi-Fi stands for Wireless Fidelity, used as medium for connecting Computing devices to a Network (LAN or internet Providers).

"wireless fidelity" in theory but really Wi-Fi doesn't stand for anything. It is not an acronym. There is no meaning. It's apparently a pun in Hi-Fi
In terms of technology.. WPA is most commonly used as the acronym for Wi-Fi Protected Access
"Wi-Fi" does not stand for anything. It is not an acronym or have a deeper meaning. It is simply what they chose to name their creation for wireless internet. As to why they chose, they name, I do not know. Hope this helps.

Yes, they are different although most people regard them as being one and the same. They are not. WLAN is an acronym for Wireless Local Area Network while Wi-Fi is described by the Wi-Fi Alliance as being any WLAN that is based upon IEEE 802.11 standards. To be Wi-Fi certified, the WLAN must successfully complete Wi-Fi Alliance interoperability certification testing. So, while any LAN that is Wi-Fi certified is regarded as a WLAN, not all WLAN are Wi-Fi certified.
