How XP(Xtreme Programming) got its name

I found this nice information on devx explaining how XP got its name:

XP got its name when its founders asked the question, "what would happen if we took each technique/practice and performed it to the extreme? How would that affect the software process?" An example of this is the practice of code reviews. If code reviews are good, then doing constant code reviews would be extreme; but would it be better? This led to practices such as pair programming and refactoring, which encourage the development of simple, effective designs, oriented in a way that optimizes business value.
