Word History

nitialism of in my honest goonion, a humorous variant of the established internet abbreviation IMHO ("in my honest opinion"). The final element substitutes goonion, a blend of good and opinion, for the conventional opinion, yielding a phrase that explicitly marks the stated view as a favorable one. Coined by Professor Sendy, who pairs it with the antonymic form IMHB ("in my honest bunnion," from bunk + opinion) for unfavorable views.

First Known Use 2026

Coinage credited to Professor Sendy.
