    Its and odd name choice and very close to venix <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Venix" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Venix

      it seems like a natural name choice to me - &quot;v + unix&quot;

        Vlang + Unix = Vinix (name choice). I suppose they could of went with Vunix, but &quot;Vin-ix&quot; flows better with both &quot;Lin-ux&quot; and &quot;U-nix&quot;.

        Think the majority or the V community, would vote for Vinix as the best name.
