In August, 2005, Tim and Brian were trying out the then new Google Talk program while working remotely. In experimenting with the ways to make italic text with underscores, Brian commented on the idea of an italic smile; emphasizing an emoticon smile with an underscore (e.g. _:)_). Tim mentioned that he liked the name “italic smile,” and both agreed that it would be a good domain name.

Four years later this WordPress theme was named Italic Smile!
