'Immer' is just German for 'always' or 'eternal'. So giving that name to your library of persistent and immutable data structures is a fairly natural thing to do, without them having anything more in common than that.
(Of course, they might have more in common, I don't know.)
Immer is also a dutch word, with the same meaning as in german.
I would never translate “eternal” to “immer”, but rather “ewig”. “Always” is the corrent translation, imo.
