It is not meant to be provocative. It is named after the animal and is
not an acronym. It also provides a convenient name for the query
language, "Pig Latin". I'm sure that the developers would have some
regret about changing the name, but if it were truly determined to be
offensive then I believe there would be a willingness to change it.
As another Jewish person on the list, I don't find it the least bit
provocative. It's a freakin' animal, that's all ;)
In fact, I'm a big fan of more fun names around here. Succubus,
Imperius, Pig, all are great in my book. I'm tried of four-letter
acronyms and packaging that's been through N layers of marketing
analysis ;)
