At least that's better than "Plover" or "Puffin"...
Ah, but both fit the post-Great War naming system of single-engined aircraft given land-bird names (except birds-of-prey)...
Still, the Boulton Paul Bobolink takes the cake in terms of the least militaristic sounding combat aircraft name! It was a single-engine aircraft, so it too, had a land-bird name.
