>From my experience with the 'Jabiru faction' nothing but 'Jabiru' will
appease them.  I could live with Australasian Stork but 'Satin Stork' is
shorter (an argument that the 'Jabiru faction' raise - the current name is
too long) and is more descriptive.  I am sticking with 'Satin Stork'.

No need.  Just insert a hyphen (Austral-asian) and the problem is solved.
