No doubt it was named to honor the incredibly flexible joints of the Osprey bird of prey. They can also fly backwards!

Just as Evolution gave improvements to the osprey, so have the engineers improved the V22--one improvement at a time. Simple really, eh!? ;-)

V-22 Ospreys weren't designed but evolved via some teleological process?
