R is a poor name, whether you can google it or not. The name can get lost in the minefield of text on the internet. Just because you never had any issues with google R does not make it any better. I have had many issues googling R and it always makes me second guess if this thread is about R language at all. On SO, I have to check if R is tagged.
R is a terrible name and it is not up for a debate. Whenever you name a product, company or in this case a language as a letter "R", you're literally asking for trouble.
Just to be fair, C is also a horrible name. On the other end of the spectrum - Julia and Rust are excellent names for a programming language because they're unique in the context of programming.
