Google’s precursor in 1996 was called “BackRub,” a search engine research project headed by Larry Page at the computer science department at Stanford.

Later, BackRub turned into “the Google Search Engine."

Would have been the other way around - googol.com was already taken, so they had to settle for something phonetically similar.
