The game’s title, “Wordle,” is a play on of Josh’s last name. According to The Verge, Josh revealed he was thinking about calling the game, “Mr. Bugs’ Wordy Nugz.”

“This is true: I was going to call ‘Wordle,’ Mr. Bugs’ Wordy Nugz,” he previously shared during an on-stage presentation. “Had I called the game Mr. Bugs, I like to think it would not have been successful.”

“I was trying to do something that was authentic to me. I was trying to build something for someone that I loved,” Josh previously explained, according to The Verge. “It just so happened a bunch of other people loved it.”

Josh advised other innovators to follow their own paths and avoid replicating an invention like his.

“Don’t try to make ‘Wordle.’ Make the thing that you’re passionate about that is meaningful to you,” he suggested. “And then everything else will follow from that.”
