For more information about the name, the README elaborates:
> Rome gets its name from proverbs such as "All Roads Lead to Rome", "Rome wasn't built in a day" and "When in Rome, do as the Romans do". This refers to the expansive scope and the desire for conformity across the project. It started as a joke at the office.

And when you do something with your project they didn't anticipate their response would be: 'When in Rome...'.
