Hi guys, I'm following with this unsourced comment which has been removed from Wikipedia, because not hosted on a third party website. In my article, I initially supposed the name Geary came from the street where Yorba was located in. According to the following comment from a former Yorba employee, this isn't the case. "On the name "Geary" The current version of the page contains a speculation: "The initial name probably came from the name of the street (Geary Street), Yorba Foundation was located in." While that's an interesting theory, I can confirm as a former Yorba employee that it's not the case and is actually a coincidence. When we released the first beta of Geary in May 2012, Yorba was located on Capp Street. That said, I don't believe we ever offered an official story on why we chose the name Geary (aside from the fact that all our software was named after streets in San Francisco) so I'm not sure I can provide a verifiable citation to contradict the current one.
