One theory is that it was derived from the French word 'Or', which means gold as the earlier packaging for Oreos were gold.

Nabisco registered the Oreo trademark in 1913, with a few name changes along the way from Oreo biscuit, to Oreo sandwich, to Oreo cream sandwich, and Oreo chocolate sandwich cookie in 1975.

7-Eleven

In 1928, 7-Eleven was known as Tote'm Stores, named after the way customers 'toted' away what they bought. Almost 20 years later, in 1946, the store was named 7-Eleven to reflect newly implemented extended hours from 7 in the morning till 11 at night.

5. How the world's most popular brands started

1) Google
Google's name originated from the word 'googol', which is a number made up of the digit 1 followed by 100 zeroes.

2) Google
The search engine was started by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, who wanted to call it BackRub at the start. One day, a colleague suggested using the name 'googolplex', and Page shortened this to 'googol'. When the colleague tried to search for the domain name on the Internet, he misspelled it as Google. Page and Brin then decided to register the accidental name for their search engine.
