Gladding replaced the “r” by an “l” and the “u” first by an “i” and than by a “y” – and the word “nylon” was coined. ... One of these interpretations is that “nylon” came from “New York” and “London”, because two chemists thought up the word on an intercontinental flight from one of the cities to the other.

HERE IS YOURS ANSWER;
◆ Nylon was first produced in 1935 (on February 28, if you want to be precise) by a chemist working for DuPont named Wallace Carothers.
◆ A silky thermoplastic material, there is nothing organic about nylon – it’s completely man-made.
◆ First used to replace real bristles in toothbrushes, it found its great fame as a substitute for silk stockings, so much so that nylons became the generic term.
