The human brain did not “give itself” the name “brain”. A network of brains (i.e. society) agreed over time on calling the gray think-tank in our skulls a “brain”. Different networks in other environments agreed on other terms to label the same object. Over time these networks evolved, constantly creating slightly-tweaked yet new names, based contextually on what they were already calling other objects (these constitute what we know as linguistic relationships).
In the remote past, people had no notion what function the brain has in the human organism. They saw “mush” and called it accordingly. Since brain was a borrowed word, those who began to use it, must at one time have had a native name for the content of heads.
