The term "POJO" initially denoted a Java object which does not follow any of the major Java object models, conventions, or frameworks; nowadays "POJO" may be used as an acronym for "Plain Old ''JavaScript'' Object" as well, in which case the term denotes a [[JavaScript]] object of similar pedigree.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://ajaxian.com/archives/return-of-the-pojo-plain-ole-javascript |title=Return of the POJO: Plain ‘Ole JavaScript |last=Almaer |first=Dion |work=Ajaxian |date=2006-07-17 |accessdate=2014-08-19 }}</ref>

The term continues the pattern of older terms for technologies that do not use fancy new features, such as POTS ([[Plain Old Telephone Service]]) in [[telephony]] and Pod ([[Plain Old Documentation]]) in [[Perl]]. The equivalent to POJO on the [[.NET framework]] is [[Plain Old CLR Object]] (POCO).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc681329.aspx |title=POCO Support |work=microsoft.com |accessdate=2012-05-27 }}
