Why is Python called Python?

How did Python get its name? Is there a reason that Python name was chosen?

Named after the Monty Python comedy.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language) An important goal of Python's developers is keeping it fun to use. This is reflected in the language's name—a tribute to the British comedy group Monty Python—and in occasionally playful approaches to tutorials and reference materials, such as examples that refer to spam and eggs (from a famous Monty Python sketch) instead of the standard foo and bar.

So, when you have a bug in python, you can whistle (normal behaviour for a python): it's look like: https://youtu.be/SJUhlRoBL8M
