Behind the scenes[]
- Many companies named Acme were founded in the 20th century, as they would be some of the first businesses listed in alphabetically arranged telephone directories. This trend inspired the naming of the fictional Acme Corporation in many Warner Brothers Cartoons, Inc.
- The word acme is derived from the Greek ακμή, meaning peak or zenith.
