I think phebalium squamulosum is pretty funny to say
I love the corpse flower, Amorphophallus titanum. Giant wonky penis.
I get a giggle out of dicksonia antarctica a tree fern which often grows into a penis shape
Phidippus fartillis
[CW: Spider]
jumping fart spider!!!!
Sus domesticus 
Liquidambar styraciflua really rolls off the tongue
Ambar.
tit mouse
Named after, of course, it's honking hyuuuge bazoonkadoonkas
Breaking the rules a bit with a trinomial but I think it's important to post the longest tautonym trinomial: Coccothraustes coccothraustes coccothraustes
Aka the hawfinch
I'll allow it for the nice ~~cock~~hawkfinch
There is a genus of frog for which the Latin name is "Mini". There are 3 types. Mum, Ature, and scule meaning that the binominal name of these frogs are:
Mini mum, Mini Ature and Mini Scule

^”im not mini , im stumpffi!!!”
Seriously incredible share though
whoever named them definitely had fun w that, so cute
The American robin (Turdus migratorius) is a migratory bird of the true thrush genus and Turdidae, the wider thrush family.
Lmaoooo
This was what I came to say. Turdus merula are so common here I take every chance to say it.
Fockea! A plant name thread!
Since Turdus is already mentioned, I always thought Columba palumbus was a really fun thing to say. And they live everywhere in Europe so they're fun to point out.
!!! love the name, and that’s a gorgeous bird
It's a shame they're seen as / sort of are pests. They have a beautiful iridescent feather pattern, especially at mating season.
Oh I hear ya. I have a massive soft spot for urban “pest birds” - especially pigeons - and that’s such a pretty variation on the colors we have in my region. From a window in the office I work in you can see onto a flat portion of the top of the building that is horrific from a maintenance perspective (usually standing water, a small tree growing) but absolutely perfect for our cliff dwelling friends who love perching on and around the ductwork, and have lots of little nooks for nesting. I’ve spent many meetings watching pigeons instead of paying attention haha.
Yiu will eat the jelly bean bugs 
Bombus impatiens - Common eastern bumble bee - I think it makes a good mental image of a round bee with somewhere to be.
Lynx lynx - Eurasian lynx- the cat so nice they named it twice
Sporobolus heterolepis - prairie drop seed - I don’t think I’ve ever pronounced it the same way twice
GOOD names
Not a plant, but I always giggle about Idolomantis Diabolica cause they've got the most intense name, but they're so clumsy and goofy, they wobble and they're so quick to flash their arms up which really just means they're scaredy cats.
Homo Troglodytes, the cave-dweller
Bonus info. Scientific taxonomy didn't stop being racist until the 1970's:
After World War II, the practice of dividing extant populations of Homo sapiens into subspecies declined. An early authority explicitly avoiding the division of H. sapiens into subspecies was Grzimeks Tierleben, published 1967–1972.[56] A late example of an academic authority proposing that the human racial groups should be considered taxonomical subspecies is John Baker (1974)
would be proud
Chorizia specioza (Palo borracho)
Yes I know the species was renamed recentlu but I'd be dead before they take away Chorizia speciosa from me
Lovely tree with funny name 
In spanish that latin name is basically "spicy sausage"
The tree trunk shape makes it even funnier
