The company name is never clearly defined, but one explanation is that it exists as a version of the conglomerate which produces everything and anything imaginable (leading to the backronym "A Company that Makes Everything"), no matter how elaborate or extravagant. Another explanation is simply that the cartoons' creators capitalized on the popular early twentieth century trend of real companies using Acme in their name (to create name recognition, and so that they would appear at the front of the phone book).

Sorry for bump but...
