A while back in one of the weekly updates bungie listed a bunch of different books and movies that they got ideas for halo from. One of the books they listed was called "Ringworld". I'm reading the book right now and on page 99 (first page of the chapter called Ringworld) second paragraph it says:
"But this sun wore a barely visible halo."
Ha! Absolute proof!
Yeah, I know its probably just a coincidence. But it's not that hard to imagine someone from Bungie reading the book trying to come up with Ideas and thinking "Halo, that would be a cool name."
