        If your question is about what "Qt" stands for, the answer is that there is no answer. It is the cute toolkit, that is it.

          According to the legends, the letter Q looked nice on the font in the editor that the original developers used to create Qt (emacs), and the combination with the 't' was there to mimic the name of another toolkit: Xt, the toolkit available to build applications for the X window system.

              That's the name. It's not an abbreviation and there is no long form of the toolkit's name.

              Even the pronunciation as "cute" was added quite late. Rumor says that founding trolls refused to do so for a long time :)
