The task is to language's name in 3D ASCII. (We can leave the definition of "3D ASCII" fuzzy, so long as the result is interesting or amusing, not a cheap hack to satisfy the task.)

Write language name in 3D ASCII is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

How about instead of a simple cube, we draw our language's name in 3D ASCII? (We can leave the definition of "3D ASCII" fuzzy, so long as the result is interesting or amusing, not a cheap hack to satisfy the task.)
