Interesting, I expected that it is based directly on the name of the Pharos island where lighthouse of Alexandria was located :-) Btw. do we have got an SVG version of the Pharo logo? -- Pavel On Thu, Oct 25, 2012 at 11:33 AM, Marcus Denker <marcus.denker@inria.fr> wrote:

Where does the name 'Pharo' come from?
From some brainstorming session in early 2008... the idea is that it is a mix of the Portuguese Farol and the french Phare for light-house.
How should it be pronounced?
I pronounce it with a non-english "a"... but there is no standard. (like in spanish Mate, the tea stuff, not like the english mate)
Is the thing inside the O supposed to be a lighthouse or a beetle?
Lighthouse.
