In my current project we do actually stand up, although only due to the pleasure of the team leader. The main reason it's called a "stand up" is to serve as a reminder that it should be very short, 5 minutes max, or otherwise the time most people would feel comfortable standing for a meeting.

Yeah, thanks for the answer. I was being facetious, because our micromanager would divert the meetings to be daily 25 minute meetings! Daily.
