    Species named like this are called “autonymous”. Like rattus rattus or puffinus puffinus.

      I was interested in a list of species like this, but couldn’t find anything when searching for “autonym”. Did you mean “Tautonym” instead?

        Oh doh yes I do! Once again I got tautonym and autonym mixed up. Autonym is within a species - like homo sapiens sapiens to distinguish from homo sapiens neanderthalensis.

    Personally I prefer Equus Caballus

    Ð scientific name for Horse is just a fancier way of saying “horse horse”

        Which is kind of funny because of miscommunication, they thought they were naming a grisly bear.

        It’s borrowed from Shavian’s idea of short handing certain grammar words. Were I a bolder man I’d be doing ð same for for, but, and, not, so, to, and oðers, along wið a host of orþographic reforms.
