- Chinese mythology (From Xingtao)
- A nearly female figure in Chinese mythology is the goddess Nu Wa (sometimes Nu Kua-女娲).
According to one legend it was she who was the creator of mankind. So almost every
Chinese know who NuWa is.

- From Brett
- Another twist is "NuWa", in some lazy American English pronunciations
which you will often hear around here in Long Island, could be taken
to mean "newer" which is somehow fitting for our ever changing software.
- Also, in Japanese, the phrase "Nu Wa" might mean "I'm talking about the
neutrino". As in "nu wa daisuki" meaning "this neutrino, I like".
