What's in a name? A lot!

The world remembers the massive political protest of Umbrella movement, the worst movement since China took back control of Hong Kong from the British in 1997, on its anniversary today. Supporters organised silent rallies in remembrance of the day when the police fired tear gas at the protestors. The protestors shielded themselves using umbrellas, hence the name.

Here is a list of the history behind the names of some of the most weirdly named movements of recent times.
