Why are clowns called clowns instead of clowns?

Clowns are more in line with the clown's personality. Clown means: a clown; Wild cards are wild cards (in some card games) and trump cards (big or small). Clowns are usually used to represent clowns; Clowns; Idiot; Idiot, esp one who deliberately makes faces to make people laugh, etc. It can be seen from the role of creating a clown that he is a joking madman, not a fool, so joker is often used to represent a clown.
