I worked at a startup with a bird theme for a bit under 4 years. There were three separate things named Nightingale in that time. By the time I left, it was kind of a joke to suggest that as the name for random things.

Nightingale was probably also the name of a meeting room.

I managed to avoid creating any new tools or services with bird names during my time there, though it was tempting to do so.
