PHP is a scripting language; it is a recursive acronym that stand for: PHP: Hypertext Profile -- notice the acronym is the first part of what it stands for :)

Hi Boss Scott ;D

Well Mymy, not to be a stickler for details but... i believe you are referring to the predecessor of PHP, which is PHP/FI, which stood for Personal Home Page / Forms Interpreter.

PHP 3, which is the base of what is used today, was a complete re-write of PHP/FI and re-branded to PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor.

Here is a good link for the entire history:
