I am saying because, according to this interview, the name JavaScript was trademarked with the support of Brendan Eich as part of "Sun Microsystems":

"I liked the fact that Joy signed the trademark agreement"

To clarify: it was true at some point because of personal reasons, and is not anymore the case, right ?

I never worked for Sun.

I liked how Bill Joy signed "Founder" and seemed to go against others at Sun.

I did not want LiveScript, and it too was under trademark threat. Mocha seemed to me more defensible, but Netscape Marketing wanted LiveScript or (if they could get Sun to agree) JavaScript. Upper management definitely wanted the Java- based name.

Hope this helps!
