That's the problem, it's not official. To complicate the matter, it's difficult to figure out who coined the original phrase, and what the acronym originally meant. I spent over two hundred seconds languishing on the internets trying to figure it out. It was utterly exhausting 😉

But seriously, the term HAMP has been coopted and backronymed to death. I have no idea what it actually means. Personally I like Hand Actuated Manual Pump. Overall, it's the most accurate description. But hey, that's just me. I'm not sure I really know anything these days. I was distracted at "hand actuated" 😜
