Trying to think of the different names that a wild game animal may be known by:

sac au lait are also called white pearch are also called specs and are also called crappie.

Gadwalls are also called Gray Ducks

Coots are also called Pouldeau

sac au lait is in the lead with four different names.

I grew up in Central La. and we called the specs or white perch, but we all knew them as sac au lait too.

Wasn't till I moved to Arkansas that I had to start calling them crappie so people would know what in the hell I was talking about.

Here's another - Flathead catfish are also called Pollywogs and may also be known as Bullhead catfish.
