"The American quail is not related to the European quail, a migratory game 
bird belonging to the partridge family (gray partridge and the red-legged      
partridge). But when colonists discovered birds that resembled the          
European version they called them by the same name."

Curye on Inglysh has multiple mentions of feasants and at least one mention 
of Quale.
