Is there any rationale for the choice of name? Hana is simultaneously a rare word and also (I think) a registered trademark of the technology company SAP.

SAP Hana is a database so there is little scope for confusion between it and Boost.Hana amongst tech professionals but from the outside world I'm not so sure...
