      Or is it

      Back Slash… / …because the bottom is back.

      Forward Slash… \ …because it’s forward at the bottom.

      /s

        I had it backwards for a really long time because you draw / from front to back (ie you write it in a backwards direction) I thought that was the back slash. That still feels right to me despite being wrong.

      In the old days of using UNC paths a lot we found ourselves saying whack whack server name whack share name. Then forward slash was just slash.
