Cupcake, Donut, Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Ice Cream Sandwich, Jelly Bean, KitKat, and Lollipop are all tasty treats. They are also names of versions of Android launched in previous years. Each year, Google chooses a new treat to act as the symbol of Android. This year, with Android M, the options are vast. So YouTube’s Nat & Lo, who often explore Google’s mysteries, created a musical number on potential Android M names while hinting at their next episode.

Among the names mentioned by Nat & Lo are Milkshake, Malt Ball, Moon Pie, Mocha, Madeleine, Muffin, Macaroon, Marshmallow, Macadamia Brittle, Meringue, M&M, Marzipan, Mango Lassi, Maple Syrup, Molasses, Mousse, Molten Chocolate Cake, and Mentos. Since some of those are actual brand names, Google may end up partnering with a sweets manufacturer. Doing so would not be surprising as Android 4.4 KitKat was promoted alongside the treat made by Nestlé. Google was able to use the name it wanted and Nestlé’s product received new exposure through cross-promotion.

What do you think Android M will go by?
