My first thought given the name was 'does it have anything to do with Google?' (sorry)

Ahh yeah I can see how people might think that with the name "LiveG"! The previous name was historically "LiveseyGadget" (my surname + "gadget") a long time ago when I came up with some of the ideas, but for all intents and purposes, this got shortened to the now-official name "LiveG" and the meaning behind the name essentially dropped to be more of an open project.
Because of the double O?
Probably because of the g in the subdomain, kind of makes it feel like "live g[oogle]"
