The Georgia typeface was commissioned by Microsoft in 1996 as a serif font that would display well on computer screens. It was named after a tabloid headline 'Alien heads found in Georgia' that the typeface designers saw, which they found amusing and memorable. Georgia is one of the core web fonts and was designed by Matthew Carter. Vermont, Montana, and Hawaii are US states but are not the names of this famous Microsoft typeface.
