iNamer is a software program developed by Apple Computer to generate names for it's popular "i" series of products. Originally designed solely for internal use in the 1950's, the software was leaked to the internet by rogue Apple programmer John Steinbeck. Apple developed the software at a cost of nearly $10 million USD, but claims that over the past 50 years, the software has saved the company nearly twice that amount.


[edit] Using iNamer

Although complex in design, iNamer is relatively simple for any highly trained PhD programmer to use, which accounts for some of it's popularity with the public at large. First, a proposed name for a product is selected. For example, suppose the name for the intended product is "Squidpuppy". "Squidpuppy" is entered into the special "entry field" of the program. After as little as 2 hours, the program will return the name "iSquidpuppy" in the special "evacuation field". In this way, it is possible to try various "i" names quickly without the laborious task of manually generating such names.


[edit] iNamer Name Controversy

It is not known how the iNamer got it's name. Although many Apple employees have claimed to have "manually" created the name prior to the writing of the software, this seems highly unlikely owing to the time required to generate the first such name. Speculation that an Apple employee in the future used the iNamer software to generate the iNamer name, and then used the iTimedatasendbackmachine to send the name back in time to him or herself was disproved during a special episode of the science show Press Your Luck.
