is there anything that has even more complicated name?

Also, why do FOSS people find recursive acronym so clever?

      ooof, that’s some brain melting paradox. good one

      use it as a name of your FOSS project

      well, as dude who wrote this post figured out, you could add any letter in front of the name and it would still work.

    Well, according to Wikipedia the point is that the two non-existent words hurd, hird sounds the same as herd in English. Hurd represents Hird of Unix-Replacing Daemons and hird stands for Hurd of Interfaces Representing Depth.

    So all three refer to a group of antelopes replacing UNIX.

    EDIT: as to your question, I think they tried really hard to have the most complicated name. I can’t think of anyone beating them.
