Honestly, I had no idea JavaScript was even a trademarked name. I've always just assumed it's the name of a programming language and had no idea it had anything to do with Oracle.
I guess I don't feel bad not knowing this though, as the language really does have nothing to do with the company it's insane that they even hold a trademark for it.
JavaScript was created as a wrapper for Java Applets. Oracle optained both when it bought Sun. The official name of the language is ECMA Script, but people insist on calling it the trademarked name because ECMA makes people think of an unpleasent skin condition.
