The 
name 
Wi-Fi
The 
term 
Wi-Fi
suggests 
Wireless 
Fidelity
resembling 
the 
long-established 
audio-
equipment 
classification 
term 
high 
fidelity
(in 
use 
since 
the 
1930s) 
or 
Hi-Fi
(used 
since 
1950). 
Even 
the 
Wi-Fi 
Alliance 
itself 
has 
often 
used 
the 
phrase 
Wireless 
Fidelity
in 
its 
press 
releases 
and 
documents; 
the 
term 
also 
appears 
in 
white 
paper 
on 
Wi-Fi 
from 
ITAA. 
However, 
based 
on 
Phil 
Belanger's 
statement, 
the 
term 
Wi-Fi 
was 
never 
supposed 
to 
mean 
anything 
at 
all. 
The 
term 
Wi-Fi
first 
used 
commercially 
in 
August 
1999, 
was 
coined 
by 
brand-
consulting 
firm 
called 
Interbrand 
Corporation 
that 
the 
Alliance 
had 
hired 
to 
determine 
name 
that 
was 
"a 
little 
catchier 
than 
'IEEE 
802.11b 
Direct 
Sequence'". 
Belanger 
also 
stated 
that 
Interbrand 
invented 
Wi-Fi
as 
play 
on 
words 
with 
Hi-Fi
and 
also 
created 
the 
yin-yang-style 
Wi-Fi 
logo. 
The 
Wi-Fi 
Alliance 
initially 
used 
an 
advertising 
slogan 
for 
Wi-Fi, 
"The 
Standard 
for 
Wireless 
Fidelity", 
but 
later 
removed 
the 
phrase 
from 
their 
marketing. 
Despite 
this, 
some 
documents 
from 
the 
Alliance 
dated 
2003 
and 
2004 
still 
contain 
the 
term 
Wireless 
Fidelity
There 
was 
no 
official 
statement 
related 
to 
the 
dropping 
of 
the 
term. 
The 
yin-yang 
logo 
indicates 
the 
certification 
of 
product 
for 
interoperability.
