Android中的flinger是什么意思？

Android源码中的flinger是什么意思，比如SurfaceFlinger的Flinger有啥含义？

I asked the same question on the Android platform mailing list and got the follow reply:

By the definition in the dictionary, a flinger is someone that flings. In the case of the SurfaceFlinger, it’s flinging visual data to the surface and AudioFlinger is flinging audio data to the appropriate recipient. They’re just “cute” words…
