Inko ("インコ") means parrot/parakeet in Japanese. In Inko communication
happens via message passing, for both objects and processes. Naming the
language after parrots/parakeets (a rather vocal type of bird, some
known for mimicking human speech) makes more sense than naming it after
the concept of eternity. Furthermore, naming the language after parrots
allows the creation of a proper logo and mascot; something quite hard
when your language is called "Aeon".
