Java actually does not have full form. But historically speaking, a company who owned java previously was named as OAK, because OAK was trademarked by OAK Technologies. Obviously, they wanted to change their name because of the confusion of the people. They selected around 15 titles and came up with finalizing three names that are JAVA, DNA and SILK. Eventually, JAVA was selected. But having said that, JAVA is jokingly abbreviated by programmers as “JUST ANOTHER VIRTUAL ACCELERATOR.” Happy Coding read less

'JAVA' as the name sounds a special meaning but actually it doesn't consists of any abbreviation. 'JAVA' is a 'aromatic coffee seed' which the developers used while designing java software. And also , 'Javanese' is a language used by Indosenian to interact with people. Many people thing 'JAVA' is same as 'Javanese' language but it is absolutely wrong. It's a totally different language. 'JAVA' is a purely OOP(Object Oriented Programming Language) which is versionable, portable and supports interoperability. read less

Java does not have any full form, but a programming language originally developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems in 1995. The developers of Java were drinking coffee while they were deciding the name of their programming language. So, they gave it the name "Java" as a slang of "Coffee".
