Short answer: It means "nodemation" and it is pronounced as n-eight-n.

Long answer: "I get that question quite often (more often than I expected) so I decided it is probablybest to answer it here. While looking for a good name for the project with a free domain I realized veryquickly that all the good ones I could think of were already taken. So, in the end, I chose nodemation.'node-' in the sense that it uses a Node-View and that it uses Node.js and '-mation' for 'automation' which iswhat the project is supposed to help with. However, I did not like how long the name was and I could notimagine writing something that long every time in the CLI. That is when I then ended up on 'n8n'." -JanOberhauser, Founder and CEO, n8n.io
