The term "Imagineering" is a portmanteau word that combines "imagination" and "engineering." The term was coined by Richard F. Sailer in an in-house article written for the National Carbon Company Management Magazine, and reprinted by the Union Carbide Company. The article "BRAINSTORMING IS IMAGINation enginEERING" was published and copyrighted in 1957, and gravitated to Disney by unknown means. WED Enterprises applied for a trademark for the term in 1967, claiming first use in 1962.

The legacy and the history of the Imagineers is a very rich and complicated one. Ever since the founding of WED Enterprises, when Walt Disney's favorites at the Walt Disney Studios were handpicked to design an immersive themed experience now known as Disneyland, the company has been shrouded in mystery and its secrets are proudly guarded by Disney executives as senior as former CEO Michael Eisner, who had regular meetings with the Imagineers up until a few years before his departure.

Καλό. Δεν το είχα σκεφτεί έτσι, αλλού πήγαινε η σκέψη μου.

Πάντοτε, με αυτές τις πορτμαντό, αναρωτιέμαι πότε θα τολμήσουμε να παίξουμε κι εμείς το ακορντεόν (π.χ. φαντομηχανική). Φυσικά, όχι σε σπάνιους όρους, όχι χωρίς επιβλέποντα οργανισμό ορολογίας.
