Is there a best accepted name for this tree? The article has been shuffled around. Right now google shows 9510 hits for "tuliptree", 26500 for "tulip tree", and 16900 for "tulip poplar". WormRunner 01:38, 23 Jan 2004 (UTC)

I'd be inclined to go for either Tulip tree or Tulip-tree. Definitely not "Tulip poplar", as that suggests it is a poplar, which of course it isn't. - MPF 18:45, 18 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Moved to Tulip tree, as this is the most widely used - MPF 12:23, 28 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Moved back to tuliptree. THIS IS THE CORRECT USAGE. Consult Dir or Preston or any reputable reference. jaknouse 15:51, 28 Feb 2004 (UTC)
