The term "GML" was based on the initials of the three surnames. See The Roots of SGML, a memoir by Charles F. Goldfarb that goes back to the 1960s and A Conversation with Charles F. Goldfarb.
    The first working draft of the SGML standard was published in 1980. By 1983, the Graphic Communications Association (GCA) recommended the latest (sixth)working draft as an industry standard (GCA 101-1983). Major adopters included the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the US Department of Defense. In 1984, the working group was reconstituted as an ISO/IEC working group and produced a draft international standard in October 1985, which was approved and published in October 1986 as ISO 8879:1986. See A Brief History of the Development of SGML for more detail on the history of SGML through 1990.”.
