minor, yes, but it's underneath my name now so i have to look at it all the time.
the current spelling of 'toucan' does not fall in line with the bird theme.
a 'tucan' (as it is spelled at present) is something else entirely.

Someone clearly failed spelling at school.

Actually, the original French that this was derived from is Tucana. The Spanish (and probably original version of the word) was tucan. So I think that's a non-issue.

The etymology is the non-issue.

At any rate, it was fixed. :heart:
