Yup. There was a meme about some bear (the european brown bear, maybe?) that was more bear than other bears, because it's latin name (as you pointed out) is literally bear bear bear.

I don't know about you, but I learned the Greek part the other day in Dadjokes, something like why don't penguins worry about polar bears? Because they're polar opposites!
