I forget, but does EAGL stand for anything specific? Or is it just part of the Core Animation OpenGL naming convention (CAEAGLLayer, etc.)?

A: 

I think it stands for Embedded GL. The 'a' is there to make it more phonetically friendly!

"AGL" is the name of Apple's OpenGL extensions for OS X. I believe "EAGL" is "Embedded AGL".
