Hi David!
My guess is as good as yours but I think rel is short for relation (as
in a relation in relational algebra). The x might as well be a, b, or
any other short variable name. In clojure-docs it looks like the
examples for #'join use first-relation and second-relation instead of
xrel and yrel to avoid any confusion:

Hey all - relatively new to the party here. I understand that an xrel
is a set of maps, but can anybody explain to me where it gets the name
xrel? --
