I can't imagine someone named their language "of", "programming", or "in". So, I guess 3. Joy and Odin are obvious since they have shown up here recently. Totally tangential, but am I the only one that was taught to put punctuation inside of quotes and now despises that rule? |

Seems more natural to have the period after the closing quote, at least in cases like this sentence of yours from above:
>I can't imagine someone named their language "of", "programming", or "in".
But I think there may be cases where period inside and before closing quote may seem better, e.g. if quoting what someone said, like a quoted sentence inside another sentence.
But I'm not an English grammar expert.
