Dada can name Dadaism or qualify the artist as a Dadaist. Legend has it that to baptize the new cultural movement Tristan Tzara opened a dictionary on a random page and found 'Dadá', which in French is associated with children, to their first words or toys (like a horse-headed stick to play the mount ) and for the Swiss it is a pet toy that one keeps since childhood for a lifetime. Of course, the original word has nothing to do with the character of the movement, except for the fact of its arbitrary choice.
