The terminology "message" for "method" comes from Smalltalk. It 
is used liberally.

C++ is using the OOP model of SIMULA, which did invent OOP! So 
I'd say the way C++ does OOP is how it was invented.

SIMULA was created by Kristen Nygaard and Ole-Johan Dahl. Nygaard 
was very much interested in object-oriented modelling and as a 
mode of thinking about problems. Not only in programming. Dahl 
went on to work on formal program verification. I had them as 
lecturers at the university. Very interesting people.
