what is the difference between the common and scientific name of an organisms
Scientists use scientific names (binomial nomenclature) to avoid confusion caused by different common names for the same species. For example, the scientific name for the domestic dog is Canis lupus familiaris, which clearly indicates its relationship to the wolf (Canis lupus) and distinguishes it from other species with similar common names.
An organism can only have one genus name as part of its scientific classification. The genus name is always capitalized and is used alongside the species name to give the organism its unique scientific name.
I don't know about three advantages, however the one primary advantage is avoidance of confusion. For example if one just says "cat" one could be talking about a house cat (Felis catus), a bobcat (Lynx rufus), or a tiger (Panthera tigris). Using the scientific names avoids the confusion of exactly what type of cat you are talking about.
Man belongs to the genus Homo and species sapiens.
Latin
they make it up :)

I think you would benefit from looking at www.babynames.co.uk or www.babycentre.co.uk. They are informative and even have lists of the most popular baby names by year.

Organisms are given scientific names using Latin. This system of naming is called binomial nomenclature, which was developed by the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus in the 18th century.
hmmm.. I have one... Dillenia philippinensis.. A flowering plant from the Philippines.
WikiAnswers cannot give out class lists even if they were available. Personal information on individuals other than celebrities is dangerous to give out on the internet.
Black footed ferrets have scientific names so people can distinguish the animals. For example, in China, the Black footed ferret might mean something else. So scientists give animals one specific name.
The use of the lists create fun activities, give people rank, & they give creative ability to position people. Unique lists have also rank companies that are top in most businesses.
