Google name is came from Googol.That means 1 followed by hundred zeros.So Google having that much information in their storage system.Initially Larry page and his partner chose the name Googol.But someone already got copyrights to that name.The word "google" came wandering from a misspelling word of "googol".

Hello Every One ...

Google began life in January 1996, not as an internet search engine and online advertising corporation as it was destined to become, but as the thesis project of Larry Page, later joined in his endeavors by Sergey Brin, both PhD students at Stanford University, California.

The name 'Google' itself was derived from a misspelling of 'googol' (ten raised to the power of a hundred) but the original name for the search engine was BackRub', paying homage to the theory of the importance of back linking, or citation, which was the cornerstone of the project.




Thank you ...

"Whether an accidental or a required change, the name Google is based on the mathematical term "googol", coined in 1938 to equal 10100, a number much larger than any practical counting operation would require (there are an estimated 1080 atoms in the known universe). Google, Inc. has stated: Google's use of the term [Google] reflects the company's mission to organize the immense, seemingly infinite amount of information available on the web."
