This may just be a personal quirk, but many of these sorts of names to me seem to be one-way memorable. Like, if I see a future reference to "frogmouth" I probably will think "Oh yeah, I've heard of that." I may or may not remember that it's a markdown browser. But if I'm trying to remember "that markdown browser I saw a while ago", I can rarely pull out the name "frogmouth".


/one-way memorable/ - recognisable, but not memorable.
