Solaris (proprietary) -> Open Solaris -> Illumos -> Open Indiana.
Sun open sourced Solaris, then Oracle bought them and closed sourced it again. But several forks remain of the open-sourced version.
They didn’t help themselves by breaking with the solar/light-themed name either. Few people know the relation of “Indiana” to Solaris. But naming things is hard for some programmers I suppose.
