I've got it.
The organization which supports Joi is Hapijs. The repository, hapijs/joi sounds like happy joy.

I remember vaguely a song, something like "Happy happy joy joy; happy happy joy." Google reveals it is a song from the old 1996 television show Ren and Stimpy. Could there be a connection?

The hapi.js logo seems familiar, too. Google reveals this 2016 GitHub issue: New Logo?

"I think it's time. We are no longer using the Ren & Stimpy theme so maybe refresh the logo with something cleaner and more up to date?"

Ladies and gentlemen, we got him.
