Rename “Zombified Piglin” to “Zombie Piglin”

The “ified” is unnecessary and makes the name flow less fluidly. It also makes it unnecessarily more different from the current name.

    They're not called "Zombified Villagers"...  and originally they were called "Zombie Pigmen" anyway!
    WHY change it to "Zombified"?

    I agree because I try to be 100% correct when speaking about Minecraft, but I can get tongue-tied sometimes when I'm talking about this mob.

    This would make everything much more consistent. Zombie Villagers, for instance, are Villagers that have been "zombified", yet there is no need to call them Zombified Villagers. Just putting the word zombie before the name is really sufficient and self-explanatory, and it is used literally everywhere else in the game. That would also make the name much more familiar and much easier to say.

    Either call it a Ziglin or change the Zoglin name to Zombie/zombified Hoglin.

    Yes! Please. I refer to them this way anyway but it’s unnecessarily long

    Why is it "Zombie, Zombie Villager, and Zombie Horse, but Zombified Piglin??? I get that they wanted to show it was different from Zombie Pigmen, but why change the zombie part?

    I don't agree. In my personal opinion, I prefer Zombified Piglin, because it's more formal and cooler.

    It flows with Zombie Villagers.

    I think they should be called Ziglins (like Zoglins).

    Eh, I personally prefer “Zombified.” It describes how they became that way.
