A03 Bird's Opening with 1...d5 (1.f4 d5 2.c4)

Depending on the source, the name of the opening changes a bit and the ECO code can also change. According to both Fritz 16 and 365chess, the ECO code is A03, but according to lichess, the ECO code is A02. The name given for this variation also differs from those sources. Fritz 16 classifies the opening as A03 Bird's Opening with 1...d5, lichess gives the name A02 Bird Opening: Sturm Gambit and 365chess gives the name A03 Mujannah opening.
