YSK: In spite of its name, the Chevrolet Corvette is not in fact, a small bird.

This would work if there was a type of bird called a corvette. If you had gone with “a small boat” instead, it would have worked. But, as is, this is shitty shittyyoushouldknow.

Maybe the shiftiness is intentional?

There are corvids which could be combined with the diminutive -ette to form Corvette.
