I think it is because they can fold up like an umbrella.

When it folds up you end up with a skinny cloth covered pole and a handle that is J-shaped like the handle of an umbrella. After you see one it is obvious where the name came from.

Because the handles are shaped like the handle on some old umbrellas, but upside down!

stable question, yet parasol - against the solar. As for the French umbrella, parapluie, - para - against, pluie - rain. so because it is clever. i like the assumption of folk asserting "umm" and figuring out on "!brella" and then the call beginning off. I heard an identical case that as quickly as the 1st settlers arrived in Australia, they observed a kangaroo bounding by potential of and asked the Aborigines "what's that?". the Aborigines replies of their very own language: "kanga roo" meaning "i don't be attentive to" and the call caught. So a kangaroo is quite an 'i don't be attentive to'. Hmmm, different ordinary names, how approximately stapler? A staple is something mandatory, including staple weight loss application. yet there is no longer something mandatory some metalstrip-bending paper clipper, is there? and how do raspberries supply their call to somebody 'blowing a raspberry' with a impolite sound? think approximately us going along with your questions!
