I now think that "Hugging Face" refers to "the face one has when hugging" which, of course, is very nice.
But up until just now, today I thought it was an Alien(s) reference.

I also assumed it was a reference to "facehuggers" when I heard about the site mentioned, until I visited and saw the emoji displayed prominently on their webpage.
i thought it was the principal behind the site. yiu can rip the face off of a model and retrain just the last bits.
Might think about it:)
