My was Monty's daughter's name. It's also why his next database is MariaDB, that's his other daughter's name. The My as in ownership and My as his daughters name was just a good coincidence.

No, My is Monty's own nickname.

Might be true, but the MySQL docs state that the 'My' comes from his daughter:
