How did nimbostratus cloud gets its name?

It got its name by combining the words nimbo and stratus. Stratus clouds are ones that form in layers, and look like they kind of 'blend in' with the sky. When you add the word nimbo to a cloud name, it means a dark rain cloud. Therefore, the nimbostrautus cloud is a dark, layered rain cloud.
