Hi there!
The word Bluetooth is an anglicized version of Old Norse Blatonn or Danish Blatand, the name of the tenth-century king Harald I of Denmark and Norway. It is said that the two united into one kingdom. The implication is that Bluetooth does the same with communications protocols, uniting them into one universal standard.
Hope that helps. Ciao!

hey hey.. just to add a little bit more on that.. King Harald was called "blue-tooth" for his love of blueberries that left blue stains on his teeth (according to legend, i think).
