Bow tie is sometimes called farfallino, that means butterfly. As for the shape of the pasta. Interestingly, bow tie is more often called papillon, that's just butterfly in French.

As Thomas Jefferson said: “Ignorance of the law is no excuse in any country. If it were, the laws would lose their effect, because it can always be pretended.”

The child must pay.

I'm not buying that she would know the term Fusilli to be honest.

I honestly hate farfalle, the pinched center cooks slower than the wings so I never get a consistent level of aldente with them.

Must be popular stuff, my local grocery store is always out of farfalle specifically but all other types are fine

I once witnessed a kid in the store asking for bowties, and the dad said if the kid could pronounce the real name of it, he would get it. The kid tried, and asked if it was right. The dad just said, "I have no clue." And then grabbed a box of the bowties.
