The male turkey, known as a "tom," gets its name from a combination of linguistic influences. The term "tom" is believed to have originated in the 17th century, possibly from the name of a popular London turkey, Tom, who became a symbol of the bird. Additionally, the name may have been influenced by the use of "tom" as a generic term for male animals. The association with the turkey as an American bird led to the adoption of this name in the English language.
