The idea for calling it Video originated from it just being a library in Racket for editing videos. The name `video` fit the trend for packages in Racket at the time:

* `pict` - was an existing library for making pictures * `slideshow` - was an existing library for making slideshows * `math` - was an existing library for...well..math (beyond what the language natively provided) * `web-server` - was an existing library for making webservers.

You get the idea, extending it:

* `video` - was a new (and thus far only in Racket) library for making videos. (note the lower case `v`)

Unfortunately video grew far beyond what I expected it to (yes still small, but I honestly expected to be the only user ever, rather then one of a dozen or so users). Unfortunately as mentioned in previous comments, I suck at naming things. But also unfortunately, no one else offered another name. So video just sort of...stuck. I eventually tacked `Lang` onto the end of it, and made the initial `V` uppercase in a desperate attempt to give it a slightly more unique name. But then that became too close to videolan...which...sigh...did I mention I fucking suck at naming things?
