The whole thing with giving groups animal names probably started with the Crickets. Buddy Holly supposedly said something to the effect of, "no one here except me and the crickets chirping in the garage." And the name stuck. Then the Beatles gave themselves another insect name, phonetically misspelled to emphasize the "beat." That led to other phonetically misspelled group names, like the Byrds and the Monkees. The Turtles considered calling themselves "the Tyrtles," but opted for the correct spelling at the last minute.
