Monarch always a Monarch?

	Just looked up 'Monarch' in Jacqueline Miller's book on common
names. The butterfly has also been called the following:

Milkweed Butterfly
Storm Fritillary
Wanderer
Archippus

so it would appear that nothing is sacred, not even the Monarch. Wonder
where 'Storm Fritillary' came from?
