I know this sounds too simple, but after taking a java course in highschool and being taught its history (programming is great but history...torture), anyway, the java language was originally going to be called OAK, but its creators realized that that name was already taken, so after getting a cup of coffee, they knew the name. I got this information from a textbook not a teacher or internet site, so it IS reliable. Good luck programming
