George Eastman makes pictures with his Kodak camera, ca 1926 -Getty Images burnedshoes: © Getty Images, ca. 1926, George Eastman makes pictures with his Kodak camera For the word Kodak, which has become one of the most recognizable brand names ever, there is no special meaning attached to it. George Eastman explained its origin: “I devised the name myself. The letter ‘K’ had been a favorite with me - it seems a strong, incisive sort of letter. It became a question of trying out a great number of combinations of letters that made words starting and ending with ‘K.’ The word ‘Kodak’ is the result.”
