Prior to the strong influence of ornithological naming, นกนางนวล nók naaŋ-nuan collectively referred to all species of terns and gulls without differentiation. The name is a combination of นวล nuan, a colour term meaning 'soft, pale, or light coloured; cream or ivory coloured, etc.' together with an old wildlife prefix นาง- naaŋ-.
In all of Southeast Asia, terns are much more common than gulls, and it is possible that the primary referent for นกนางนวล nók naaŋ-nuan was originally 'tern'. As late as (18), fifteen species of tern were reported and only a single species of gull (which was named as 'large'). The joint influence of Western languages and scientific taxonomy have focused the modern primary meaning of นกนางนวล nók naaŋ-nuan as 'gull' (Larinae), although 'tern' is still included in all dictionary definitions.
As a result, the Sterninae terns have been differentiated as นกนางนวลแกลบ nók naaŋ-nuan-klàeep, intended as 'lesser gull'. (The ornithological meaning of แกลบ klàeep is 'lesser', but generally it means 'something light in weight and easily blown by the wind, e.g. chaff, tissue paper, etc.'.)
The Rychopinae skimmers are known by the separate name of นกกรีดน้ำ nók krìit-náam 'water-cutter (bird)'.
In (22, 23) the three subfamilies of the H&M 3 Laridae have been promoted to family rank with the following family names:
Rhynchopidae วงศ์นกกรีดน้ำ woŋ nók krìit-náam 'skimmer family'.
Sternidae วงศ์นกน็อดดีและนกนางนวลแกลบ woŋ nók nóat-dii láe nók naaŋ-nuan-klàeep 'noddy and tern family'.
Laridae วงศ์นกนางนวล woŋ nók naaŋ-nuan 'gull family'.
Note
With the breakup of the Larus argentatus (Herring Gull) complex, it is difficult to get clear information on the distribution or naming of species. The original naming of the Herring Gull is as follows:

In classing the Asian herring gulls as Larus smithsonianus (with subspecies L. s. vegae and L. s. mongolicus), Howard and Moore run counter to every existing Chinese naming system. Very few sources even have a name for Larus smithsonianus. Here we've adopted Larus argentatus as per traditional naming. More recent sources give names for L. vegae and L. mongolicus. They include:
Larus vegae:
西伯利亚银鸥
(西伯利亞銀鷗)
'Siberian silver-gull' (2), (4), (35)
织女银鸥
(織女銀鷗)
'weaving girl (=Vega) silver-gull' (3)
织女鸥
(織女鷗)
'weaving girl gull' (alt in 3)
Larus mongolicus:
红脚银鸥
(紅腳銀鷗)
'red-legged silver-gull' (7)
蒙古银鸥
(蒙古銀鷗)
'Mongolian silver-gull' (35)
In classing the Asian herring gulls as Larus smithsonianus (with subspecies L. s. vegae and L. s. mongolicus), Howard and Moore run counter to the existing Taiwanese naming system. As of 2014, the Chinese Wild Bird Federation still lists Larus argentatus as the relevant species occuring in Taiwan. For L. vegae, some Internet sites propose the following name:
Larus vegae:
(织女银鸥)
織女銀鷗
'weaving girl (=Vega) silver-gull'
In classing the Asian herring gulls as Larus smithsonianus (with subspecies L. s. vegae and L. s. mongolicus), Howard and Moore run counter to the existing Japanese naming system. Here we use the original naming for L. argentatus. Subspecies are as follows:

セグロカモメ
(背黒鴎)
se-guro kamome
'black-backed gull'
Larus argentatus smithsonianus:
