Moa

In Sweden during the lates 12th Century. The Swedish police went to New Zealand. They brought back tales of incredible flightless obese birds. They tasted similar to their mothers.

Thus the Swedish word for Mother was transferred to the bird.
Swedish mothers still give this name to their children when they remind them of such birds.
It is also a double bluff.

'Man that is one damn big baby!'
'Yeah such a Moa.'
