So now you want to know where the name came from.  I guess it was partly because our first choices were already taken. The main reason was that the best children stories happen in woods. 'Winnie-the-Pooh' from A. A. Milne plays off in Hundred Acre Wood and then there is 'The Wind in the Willows' from Kenneth Grahame, which covers a wild wood, a river and the whole countryside.

I hope that the name will also remind you to never grow too old to be able to close your eyes and imagine yourself lying on your back under a tree; there is a gentle breeze and you are watching the clouds pass by. Look there's a bear, no its a dinosaur. See you're relaxing already. Let's stay children forever....

(By the way, cricket bats are made from Willow wood...)
