To be clear, none of my findings are deal killers for the proposed name. BOJA is the stock symbol for Bojangles Inc. A chain of fried chicken restaurants. Wiktionary defined variants of boja [1]. What did you say you thought it meant? Boja has 163 matches on Github, but I didn't see an exact match but didn't check all. https://github.com/mudroljub/bojanka is "Simple JavaScript application for drawing in HTML5 canvas"
