No you are quite right Ian and did exactly the same thing myself when birding Thailand for the first time, I learnt its always the last name that prevalent. In this case Sandpiper, the Curlew comes from this species 'Curlew' like bill.

OK I've made a fool of myself.I'll keep quiet in future.

Well, I just learned something ; I always thought a Curlew and a Sandpiper were different birds.Now I know different. Thanks Dave.
