Interesting, thanks for mentioning that. I've always wondered about the origins of the name, never found anything, but now with your mention of "mineral" I was able to find this:

So, he means SQL-ite, but doesn't want to proscribe this as the only way people should say it. I like all of that.
Maybe we should follow his example.
