Something different :P Have you read Michael Beckwith's post titled F9 theming [1]? It suggests that the theme should represent freedom (since the current theme is Infinity)... So I thought of Naming F9 based on that too... I did some research on the internet, and I found this [2]. But, since we just can't call it Bald Eagle, I looked on wikipedia [3]. In the synonyms, there's a name in Latin that goes back to 1766, which is Falco leucocephalus, but since that is too long, I thought that calling it Falco is just right! It'll be an Eagle :) What do you think?
