More inappropriate names

I like Marzena's Guinea Pigs being so named because they are neither pigs nor from Guinea.

It reminded me of my history teacher talking about the Holy Roman Empire: 'easy to remember as it was neither holy, nor Roman nor an Empire.'

There must be more of these, and as I water the grass today, I'll be pondering.
