phpBB === PHP Bulletin Board - one of the major forum platforms out there using PHP.
So since NodeBB is using Node.js you can figure it out

An interview with Andrew Rodrigues, Julian Lam and BarΔ±Ε Soner UΕaklΔ±:

I think NodeBB is pretty good since its a special kind of branding. People will always think "NodeBB" when they think forum programmed in node.
Other interesting names for a bulletin board that I've thought of in the past though are SlickBB(this was one I tried to build on my own but never ended up releasing), TheBB, BulletBoard, Digest, Conclave, Convention, Concourse(why hasn't this one been used?), and Audience.
