WebHostCentral UK - Dean Posted February 20, 2015 Report Posted February 20, 2015 Its always interesting to find out where the name came from? Long discussions.. Meaningful.. Few to many drinks etc So where did Blesta come from and does it have a meaning? Quote
Michael Posted February 20, 2015 Report Posted February 20, 2015 Paul just came up with it I believe, and then found out Blesta is an anagram of Stable so a perfect match . ModulesBakery and serge 2 Quote
WebHostCentral UK - Dean Posted February 20, 2015 Author Report Posted February 20, 2015 Ha yeah when i am typing Blesta on my phone it tries changing it to stable Michael 1 Quote
Tyson Posted February 20, 2015 Report Posted February 20, 2015 Blesta comes from the root word "blest" (blessed), from the Latin word "benedicere", meaning to praise. In later Old English it meant to make happy. And we want to make everyone that uses the software happy by providing them with a useful and stable billing application to make running their business easier. Hah! I'm kidding about that--while partially true, that's not why it's named Blesta. Had you going for a second. ariq01, ModulesBakery and Michael 3 Quote

(Check out that happy face in our logo) Though I originally came across the name "Blesta" using a random word generator. We wanted a unique name that we could build a brand around. blesta.com was available when I came across the name and it went on my short list. A few days later I went to register the domain and it was taken . I went through hundreds of more names and didn't like any of them, and for a kick I did a whois on blesta.com again. It was available! Someone bought the domain, and then returned it during the grace period. I had never seen that happen before or since. It was meant to be!

serge Posted February 20, 2015 Report Posted February 20, 2015 hacking latin word is so good for branding (it's given like hidden/evident sense), you're right Quote
