hehe, its not just the name that changes.

The basis on which the different species are labelled, sorted and organized into groups etc is changed.
Actually the name for the organisms themselves dont change really. But the groups they organized within. The essential point is that they are not changed for the fun of changing it and not based on your favorite colors or food preferences, but based on the new knowledge modern genetics has granted to us about those organisms.
The proof lies in the DNA of the organisms.
