Where did the word Logies come from?

The word "Logies" is actually a shortened form of "Logie Awards", which is an annual Australian awards ceremony honoring excellence in television.

The name "Logies" itself originates from the "Golden Logie Award", the most prestigious award given out at the ceremony. This award is named after John "Logie" Logie Baird, a Scottish inventor who is credited with developing the first working mechanical television system.

Therefore, the word "Logies" is a combination of the name "Logie" (in honor of John Logie Baird) and "Awards" (referring to the ceremony itself).
