    I suppose their name could also be meant to imply that they’re meant for sharp people, to write down ideas with.

    However, in all my time in meetings I would say they’re rather meant to write ideas on flipcharts with that’ll lead to a sharp decline in business value. 😑

      It seems that the etymology isn’t on Wikipedia. I’d assume the name is in reference to sharp lines that you can write or draw with it.
