  • NewC

  • C with Classes

  • C*

  • C#

Answer

The answer is "C with Classes". C++ was originally named "C with Classes" by its creator, Bjarne Stroustrup, to reflect its origins as an extension of the C programming language that added support for classes, objects, and other object-oriented programming features. The name was later changed to "C++" to better represent the significant enhancements and additions that had been made to the language.
