Liverpool is named after a liver bird though (LIE-ver), not the organ.

Curious about what a liver bird looks like? There's one on the Liverpool FC crest.

Why does the Mersey run through Liverpool?

So it doesn't get mugged.

Well, Radiator Springs in the movie is named after the aptly named Radiator bird.
