Do you think when the birds wake you up at 5am they’d be saying their full names, like “Red Breasted Chickadoodle”, or would they just be screaming: “BIRD BIRD BIRD CROOOOWWW CROWWW BIRD BIRD” ?
Well the pokemon are named after the sounds they make, not the other way round, so a red breasted chickadoodle would instead be named after whatever sound it makes.
There is also some historic precedent for humans naming animals after the sounds they make, one being cats being called ‘miu’.
