Linus Torvalds has quipped about the name "git", which is British English slang for a stupid or unpleasant person:
“ I'm an egotistical bastard, and I name all my projects after myself. First Linux, now git.”
This self-deprecation is certainly tongue-in-cheek, insofar as Torvalds did not, in fact, name Linux after himself (see History of Linux).
