MySQL, MariaDB, and MaxScale are all named after Ulf "Monty" Widenius' kids
His first kid was called „My“?
That or SQL
Little Bobby Tables
Apparently. Finns are and odd bunch.
My
- The Finnish author Tove Marika Jansson (1914 - 2001) invented this name for her stories about the Mumin troll (Moomin Trolls). Lilla My (Little My) lives with the Mumin family. She is so small that she can sit in the family's milk jug. My gives expression to a most destructive turn of mind. She is totally disrespectful and can be very aggressive but has nevertheless an extremely positive attitude to life. Sometimes, she may even demonstrate a kind of careless friendliness - when it suits her.
- My is also the name of the 12th letter in the Greek alphabeth.
- Creative Spelling of Mi (see Mia)
Nah, he was named Sequel in the hopes he'd both benefit from and be crushed by expectations

Imagine running out of ideas before having named one after every kid. Now that would be awkward.
