What is the problem with using common names in classification?

Answers

A general phobia with unfamiliar latinized scientific nomenclature has proliferated the use of common or trivial names. These names, however, can vary with geographic region, language, or individual preference often and thus, can lead to misidentification or a delay in the proper identification of a toxic plant.

Answer:

The only problem of using common names is that we cannot deduce the features of a particular organism just by looking at its name.

Explanation:

The only problem of utilizing basic names is that we can't find the highlights of a specific organic entity just by seeing its name.
