Why Name a Pigeon Penguin Four? Part 2

You saw it here, first:  CoPilot’s shallow insight. . .

A quirky legacy.

“Naming a pigeon ‘Penguin Four’ is not a cultural phenomenon. The most likely explanation, the name is a fictional combination of words.

The name probably arises from an act of creative whimsy, like in a story or a joke. It also contrasts the nature of two different words, penguin’ and ‘pigeon’.

The number ‘four’ makes the character’s name sound unusual as if it’s a specific number in a joke punchline, bizarre detail, or simple flight of fancy?
