I have the following excuse and/or explanation:
I was probably thinking "Fulton," but it came out "Clinton."
Okay, okay, I know that's lame.
Anyhow, at least they named one after a guy named Clinton:

And how come I never heard of Fitch before? In the true American
tradition, I should sue one or more of my elementary school
teachers for not teaching me this. Of course, they're probably
all dead by now.
