Will (as in whip-poor-Will) Explanation: This may not be exactly what you're looking for, but the song of the whippoorwill comes to mind. It got its name because its song sounds kind of like "whip poor Will" in English, if you have a good imagination. The YouTube link has a recording.

peer agreement (net): +1Oriole Explanation: In my opinion, you don't have to use the same word in the character's name and the song he/it sings. Rhyming 'oriole' with an appropriate phrase/expression would have an equal effect on the reader. For example, the song might go like this: "Tell us all!" An oriole singing 'Tell us all!'. |
