how did the name RED come about?

My first assotiation was the simple red light that's on when the cam is recording.

Maybe the fact that the start of visible electro-magnetic radiation is the colour of red.

And maybe it's just the nickname of someone special.
 
And guys,

Jim seems to be down to earth as much he can in this situation. I think questions & speculations like : "how much did you pay for this and that...." have no positive effect here and aren't relevant in any way. Fun is generally okay, but not when it can make a wrong impression.

Try to put yourself in the same position.

Bit of a sensitive query no? If he did indeed buy it from an existing owner, I'd say expect 6 figures at least. You can count the number of 3 letter dictionary word .com domains on one hand (or a few).

It doesn't hurt to ask. Blue.com sold for $500,000 in March this year, so you're probably right with the 6 figures.

Then again, Jim might not have purchased red.com at all. The owner is shown as Redcode, Inc, so it might be leased instead. Which is probably a good move considering what $500,000+ could be put towards instead :)
