Уралдай uraldai is not found in ordinary dictionaries. The name is also used for the prinias and is quite possibly a portmanteau of Уран шувуу uraŋ shuvuu wren and Гургалдай gurgaldai 'robin or warbler', modelled on the Chinese name 鹪莺 jiāo-yīng 'wren-warbler', which is in turn modelled on English 'wren warbler'. The name possibly reflects earlier taxonomic groupings between the Prinias and Goldcrests.
