Where did the Starcube rumour start?

When the Gamecube was called Project Dolphin, SR and loads of other sites changed all writing saying Dolphin to Starcube, even though Nintendo never ever announced that the Dolphin was going to be called Starcube and kept calling it Dolphin!

I even reminded SR a few times that it was still called Dolphin at the time!

Nearly everyone in the world believed it was the consoles new name!

So where did this rumour start?

Starcube was one of the names that Nintendo were thinking of... it leaked, and Nintendo decided it was a crap name.
