Google Full Form, What is the meaning of Google?




GOOGLE: Global Organization of Oriented Group Language of Earth. There is a lot of confusion about if Google has a full form or it is just a word created by the founder of Google. Officially Google has not a full form. It is generated from a word "googol" which means a huge number
GOOGLE stands for
G - Global
O - Organization
- Oriented
G - Group
L - Language
E - Earth

The word "Google" is derived from "Googol" which means 10 to the 100th power (which is 1 followed by 100 zeros).

HISTORY OF GOOGLE:

When Larry Page and Sergey Brin first created their search engine at Stanford they originally named it BackRub.
However, they quickly realized that BackRub was, ahem, not a great name choice.



In choosing a new name, Larry and Sergey decided to incorporate the fact that their search engine was supposed to return large amounts of information so they chose to name the company after a really large number, 10100 also known as googol. When they went to register the domain name for their newly christened company, they misspelled the name thinking googol was spelled with a le suffix instead of the ol suffix and that's when Google was born.


Any acronym you may hear tied to the company's name is simply a backronym and has nothing to with the origin of the name nor is there one that is officially recognized by Google.

Note:

There is a lot of confusion about if Google has a full form or if it is just a word created by the founder of Google. Officially Google has not a full form. It is generated from a word "googol" which means a huge number.
The word "googol" represents a number that is 1 followed by 100 zeros.
But I have read somewhere that GOOGLE is an acronym for Global Organization of Oriented Group Language of Earth. Don’t know how far it’s true.
