I like to imagine all birds were named by a single elderly couple, Evelyn and Wallace. Evelyn put a lot of thought and poetry into naming them, like the Nightingale, the Scarlet Tanager, the Indigo Bunting and the Cedar Waxing. Then we have Wallace. Wallace brought us the Blackbird, the Barn Owl, and the Woodpecker.
