Apache came originally from the NCSA httpd server. After it had been out
for a while, there were many patches that had been made available but
not incorporated into the NCSA httpd tree. A group of people got
together to maintain a forked version that included all the patches.
As it was 'a patchy server', the name Apache seemed obvious :-)
