Is it nominative determinism if it's 2 years before the introduction of Goto (1956, Fortran apparently)
Or maybe it was named in his honour?

There's also GotoBLAS, developed by Kazushige Goto. I wonder if they have any relation or if it's a relatively common name.

pronounced `go toe`
Goto (as in "Go to") and Goto (as in the romaji version of one of 後藤, 五藤, 五島, …) is simple two things that sound/look the same when written in ASCII w/o spaces. :)
