The DuckDB website has the following to say about the name:
> Why call it DuckDB?
> Ducks are amazing animals. They can fly, walk and swim. They can also live off pretty much everything. They are quite resilient to environmental challenges. A duck's song will bring people back from the dead and inspires database research. They are thus the perfect mascot for a versatile and resilient data management system.
