Is WEN short for something?

I noticed that the word WEN is in all caps and wondered if it was short for something. If not, does the word WEN have a special meaning?

Nope it's ""New"" backwards.

So WEN is actually the word new spelled backwards? Interesting. Thank you.

Yep, that is right. Chaz explained it during one of his shows.

I totally understand Chaz' reasoning, and I'm not trying to beat him up for it, but there's also something called a wen that's a cyst on a person's scalp (or sometimes genitals). Most people don't know that, but when you do it makes you wonder if that should have been taken into consideration when naming his product line.
