==Taxonomy==
The Jacobin cuckoo was described by the French polymath [[Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon]] in his ''Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux'' in 1780.<ref>{{ cite book | last=Buffon | first=Georges-Louis Leclerc de | author-link=Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon | year=1780 | title=Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux | volume=12 | place=Paris | publisher=De L'Imprimerie Royale | page=35 | chapter=Le Jacobin huppé de Coromandel | language=fr  | url=https://biodiversitylibrary.org/page/42301234 }}</ref> The bird was also illustrated in a hand-coloured plate engraved by [[François-Nicolas Martinet]] in the ''Planches Enluminées D'Histoire Naturelle''. This was produced under the supervision of [[Edme-Louis Daubenton]] to accompany Buffon's text.<ref>{{cite book | last1=Buffon | first1=Georges-Louis Leclerc de | author1-link=Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon | last2=Martinet | first2=François-Nicolas | author2-link=François-Nicolas Martinet | last3=Daubenton | first3=Edme-Louis  | author3-link=Edme-Louis Daubenton | last4=Daubenton | first4=Louis-Jean-Marie | author4-link=Louis-Jean-Marie Daubenton | year=1765–1783 | chapter=Coucou hupé de la côte de Coromandel | title=Planches Enluminées D'Histoire Naturelle | volume=9 | place=Paris | publisher=De L'Imprimerie Royale | at=Plate 872 | chapter-url=https://biodiversitylibrary.org/page/35224647 }}</ref>  Neither the plate caption nor Buffon's description included a scientific name but in 1783 the Dutch naturalist [[Pieter Boddaert]] coined the [[binomial name]] ''Cuculus jacobinus'' in his catalogue of the ''Planches Enluminées''.<ref>{{cite book | last=Boddaert | first=Pieter | author-link=Pieter Boddaert | year=1783 | title=Table des planches enluminéez d'histoire naturelle de M.

The current genus ''Clamator'' was erected by German naturalist [[Johann Jakob Kaup]] in 1829 with the [[great spotted cuckoo]] (''Clamator glandarius'') as the [[type species]].<ref>{{ cite book | last=Kaup | first=Johann Jakob | author-link=Johann Jakob Kaup | year=1829 | title=Skizzirte Entwickelungs-Geschichte und Naturliches System der Europaischen Thierwelt | volume=c. 1 | language=de | place=Darmstadt | publisher=In commission bei Carl Wilhelm Leske | page=53 | url=https://biodiversitylibrary.org/page/41576476 }}</ref> The name is the [[Latin]] word for "shouter" from ''clamare'', "to shout". The specific epithet ''jacobinus'' and the English name Jacobin refer to the pied plumage which resembles the black and white garments of monks belonging to the [[Dominican Order]]. In France Dominicans were known as "Jacobins".<ref name=job>{{cite book | last= Jobling | first= James A. | year= 2010| title= The Helm Dictionary of Scientific Bird Names | url= https://archive.org/details/Helm_Dictionary_of_Scientific_Bird_Names_by_James_A._Jobling | publisher= Christopher Helm | location = London | isbn = 978-1-4081-2501-4 | pages= [https://archive.org/details/Helm_Dictionary_of_Scientific_Bird_Names_by_James_A._Jobling/page/n110 110], 210}}</ref>
