> B-trees were invented by Rudolf Bayer and Edward M. McCreight while working at Boeing Research Labs

> Bayer and McCreight never explained what, if anything, the B stands for; Boeing, balanced, between, broad, bushy, and Bayer have been suggested.

> McCreight has said that "the more you think about what the B in B-trees means, the better you understand B-trees".
