Depending on where you live and your heritage, plants have many different common names. For example: Milk Thistle is also known to some as St Mary's Thistle or Marian Thistle. Sometimes, two different plants have the same common name. For example: Knitbone could be either Symphytum offinalis or Eupatorium perfoliatum.
