Pigeon is a French word that derives from the Latin pīpiō, for a 'peeping' chick, while dove is ultimately a Germanic word, possibly referring to the bird's diving flight.
Also known as the American mourning dove, the rain dove, the chueybird, and colloquially as the turtle dove, this bird was once known as the Carolina pigeon and Carolina turtledove.
