I do like the name... but I can't imagine how Catholic Spanish
speaking fishers in the Perú coast would have called that fenomena as
_Niño_ in Zera's time line, because there is no Perú, an the nations
that inhabit that area are not Christian and don't speak Spanish
either.

In our timeline, Peruvian fishers noted that heating of usually cold
waters (Humbold stream) usually came each ten or so years before
Christmas, and they related as something that came with "el niño Dios"
(child God: Jesus), then they called it "el Niño".  I guess that in
Zera timeline, the name Remkaliba people called that fenomena would be
borrowed into English or something like that.
