Name kind of overlaps with Hermes the literal packet manager.



There is also a JavaScript engine called Hermes.


FWIW hermès has been pretty trigger happy with their lawyers in the past. They sent E3D C&D notices until they renamed their hotend/extruder combo (read: nothing at all to do with bags) to “hermera”.
