Hmm - I'm not sure about this. Introducing the 'J' letter will give a Java connotation to the whole thing. The proposed PHP and Rails implementations will have no Java components in them. I'd rather stick with a more generic name.

Olio sounds good, but there's nothing related with Java, Web, frameworks or
anything else... (or, is just me who couldn't find any information about
this word?)

So, because of the lack of co-relation between Olio and Java Webkits, I
found that there's an word which could fit better: Jawi

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jawi

Could also be an acronymous of Java Webkits Incubator =)

Just in case nobody mentioned this to you yet: "Olio" is the Finnish word for "object" as in "object relational database" or "object- oriented programming". You may or may not find this suitable. :-)

Unfortunately, it also means that there are quite a few Finnish IT companies with the word "olio" in their name. Also, "olio.fi" is owned by a Finnish web design company (though they haven't put anything on it yet). Again, this may or may not be suitable. :-/
I vote for Olio. I doubt if we'll find any string of sounds that won't be in use someplace. Apache is widely used for many corporations and this doesn't seem to be an issue. I think the OO relationship is a positive.
