The drongos have only been recently listed in Mongolia's avifauna and have been given the ornithological name Доронго doroŋgo, a borrowing from English or Russian.

Inner Mongolia

Inner Mongolia has greater familiarity with and a longer tradition of naming the drongos. Names are based on the shape of their tail and include Жадат jadat 'having a lance/spear', Жадат хар jadat khar 'having lance/spear black', or Жадат хар шувуу jadat khar shuvuu 'having lance/spear black bird'.
