Other families arising from this break-up include the Acrocephalidae, Phylloscipidae, and Scotocercidae, as well as part of the Sylviidae.

The Locustellidae in West Malaysia/Singapore are represented by only two species belonging to the genus Locustella. Under Malaysian naming, both are known as Burung Cekup 'warbler (bird)', a term traditionally used for the old Sylviidae.

Under Indonesian naming, Locustella gets its own name, Burung Kecici from the Javanese word cici / kecici, originally referring to the prinias.

セッカ sekka is used in Japanese for several small warbling birds in the Cisticolidae, Locustellidae, and Phylloscopidae. The etymology is unknown. It is written with the ateji 雪加 (literally 'snow-add') or 雪下 (literally 'snow-below'), characters assigned on the basis of sound only with little or no relation to etymology or meaning.

Sennyū, a term for grasshopper-warblers, is of unknown etymology. It is written with characters meaning 'enter fairy' or 'infiltrate'. The characters function as ateji, an attempt to represent the pronunciation with characters that have little or no relationship to the meaning or etymology.
