A Danish king who loved blueberries and had blue teeth
The name “Bluetooth” comes from King Harald Bluetooth of Denmark, who lived in the 10th century (he loved to eat blueberries, which made his teeth appear blue).
During the preparatory phase of the industry association, a highly expressive name was needed to label this high-tech innovation. After a night of discussions about European history and the limitless potential of future technologies, some members of the industry organization believed that naming it after King Blatand was the most fitting choice. King Blatand unified what is now Norway, Sweden, and Denmark; his eloquence and social skills mirrored the upcoming technology, which is defined as enabling coordinated work across different industrial fields, maintaining good communication between various system domains, such as computing, mobile phones, and the automotive industry. Thus, the name was established.
