Why Bluetooth is called Bluetooth, and what the logo actually is
Bluetooth is named after a 10th-century Danish king, Harald "Bluetooth" Gormsson, who united warring tribes — the analogy Jim Kardach drew when he proposed it as a codename in 1996. The logo is a bind-rune of the king's initials. The codename was never meant to ship.
