Him and Johan de Nysschen. Not sure who came up with it, but they were both pushing for it.
DeNysschen's previously claim to fame was revising Audi's naming convention to what it's used as today. He did the same thing at Infiniti. He left Infiniti for Cadillac, and go figure, its naming conventions were all changed, but he quit before fully seeing the transition through, which is why we have both the Escalade and CT-# cars.
I'm willing to bet it was far more DeNysschen than Palmer.
