(1) was chosen as the mascot for a product X, which forms the core for a major product Y.

(1) was named after (2), but the name was misspelt, and the wrong spelling stuck. (2) was chosen because he was a major proponent of (3)s work, and the community that chose (1) felt that it was analogical to the products X and Y.
