Great question! The name stands for "7 eleven", a combination of the numbers 7 and 11.

Is there a meaning to those 2 numbers?
user
The numbers don't mean anything by themselves, but 7/11 is a shorthand way of referring to 7:11 AM, or 7 minutes past 11 o'clock. 7 AM is the opening time for most businesses in North America.

Oh. That makes sense. And the 7 is the days of the week it is open?
