You could then also ask why Covenant name their vehicles after entities and creatures "from" Earth. Like the Banshee for instance, which is something that comes from European Medieval times. Or Scarab, as I doubt they actually have scarab (beetles) on Covie planets...
They don't. Those are the UNSC's designations for the vehicles/aircraft.
They do. Read the online chapters of Glasslands for instance. Elites refer to Revenants as Revenants. And throughout the series they refer to their vehicles with the same names the UNSC uses.
It was either in "The Flood" or " Fall of Reach" one of them talks about how the UNSC referred to the Covie fliers as Banshees because thats what you will be if you see one, Or maybe it was Ghosts or Wraiths... regardless, in one of them it makes a notion that they are nicknames, I'll try to find the paragraph and leave a quote.
