For a long time, they messed up which skull went with the body -- in part because it's so danged big they rarely found a complete skeleton. Once they'd sorted things out (and a couple museum curators got over their red faces for swapping out accurate skulls for ones that *everyone* knew was the right one) paleontologists renamed it to remind themselves not to do that sort of thing again.
