In 6th edition, the Lore of Beasts had these spells with names I find quite interesting, such as Buccos the Oxen Stands, Adlos the Eagle's Cry and Ursus the Bear's Anger. It might be a minor question, but do anyone here know from where these various names where taken? Corvos, Lupens and Ursus might be pretty obvious, as they where supposedly taken from the language of Latin, but what about Adlos, Buccos and Kinos (the Beast Cowers)? I myself hasn't been able to find anything.

Well...Osso Bucco is an Italian dish that uses veal

Adler is an Germanic surname meaning Eagle. They probably just took that and latinized it.
