Microsoft's naming conventions for Windows updates follow the periodic table of elements, with each release associated with a specific element. The upcoming update is linked with Germanium, continuing the trend seen in previous updates like 21H2 (Cobalt) and 22H2 (Nickel).

The journey began with the release of Windows 11 (21H2), codenamed "Sun Valley," in October 2021. This was followed by the Windows 11 2022 Update (22H2), known as "Sun Valley 2," released in September 2022.
