Of course, all comets around the sun are coming under the family of planets but with large eccentricity. But we would like to differentiate them because of that large eccentricity.

Comets have been seen and studied by people for thousands of years. Edmond Halley predicted a comet to return in 1705 which is why we call it Halley's Comet or Comet Halley.

Bill Halley
Edmund Halley. He even had a comet named after him, the Halley Comet.
Comet Hyakutake, named after Japanese astronomer Yuji Hyakutake who discovered it in 1996, did not have specific folklore associated with it as it was a recently discovered astronomical object. However, comets have historically been viewed as omens or harbingers of change in various cultures around the world.
