Wile E. is my hero, and should be every MG enthusiasts as well, at least for
his stubborn, continuous attempts to solve a particular challenge he was

I think it was just a convenient, somewhat generic company name that the
Warner Bros. and Mel Blanc came up with. The dictionary definition
notwithstanding, it is typical of 20s and 30s American industrial names. If
there is some sort of funny or sinister acronym, I haven't heard it.
