I wonder if people that JavaScript is indirectly named from an ethnic group in Indonesia.
Javanese ethnic -> Java Island -> Javanese coffee -> Java programming language -> JavaScript
Is based on the Java island coffee, the preferred variation of James Gosling. This is why the Java logo is a cup of coffee.

Yes, indeed, I see javascripts in the wild every day.
Nah, it’s not a programming language.

Until recently, thought it was also named after Pythagoras, with the snake being a double meaning.
