The origin of our name

Contrary to what many assume, our name does not come from being 23 people. It originates from a concept featured in the Matrix saga and, in particular, from a dialogue between The Architect and Neo in the movie The Matrix Reloaded.

"You must select from the Matrix twenty-three individuals — sixteen female, seven male — to rebuild Zion."

— The Architect — The Matrix Reloaded

In short: we are the spirit behind those 23 people outside the matrix.
