Would you prefer it if they were called chicken balls (in order to differentiate them from cow balls, pig balls, sheep balls, fish balls etc)?
Fish balls, pork balls, etc. are common in Thailand.
Thai fish balls are a popular street food and a versatile ingredient in Thai cuisine, known for their springy, bouncy texture and fragrant flavor. They are made from fish paste (often with red curry paste and herbs) and can be boiled, fried as patties (known as Tod Mun Pla), or grilled.
