I had a similar question in mind when writing the following dance. At that time I was assured by those I spoke with that the varying configurations of this move were all Butterfly Whirls.

Give the Gents a Whirl
[Type]: Contra    [Formation]: Becket CW    [Author]: Don Veino    [Status]: DV::
[Comments]: Romantic start with Neighbor and promenade into a Gents (Butterfly) Whirl along the set. Have lines stretch out to make room for A1 simultaneous gypsy in middle.
::
[A1]:
(3,2,3) LINES FORWARD, GYPSY NEIGHBOR 1/2, LINES BACK (so all cross set to N's place)
(6,2) STAR LEFT 3/4, SHIFT TO TAKE NEIGHBOR IN PROMENADE POSITION facing CCW around oval
::
[A2]:
(6,2) Everyone PROMENADE THE OVAL, LADIES TURN BACK over right shoulder
#PROGRESSION
(8) NEW N SWING end facing CW around oval in promenade position
::
[B1]:
(6) PROMENADE BACK until opposite Partner
(6,4) GENTS WHIRL* 1+1/4, GENTS CROSS to P (passing Left)
::
[B2]:
(4,12) PARTNER BALANCE, SWING
(alternate for smooth, slinky feel: Partner Gypsy, Swing)
::
[Notes]: A1 - Shift to take Neighbor in Promenade: All drop hands from Star, Gent walks forward to join hands with current Neighbor lady in promenade position - left in left, right in right.
A2 - EVERYONE (ENDS!) MUST PARTICIPATE IN THE A2 PROMENADE, as it is the progression.
B1 = *Gents Whirl in this case is a CW rotation Butterfly Whirl with the Gents going forward and the Ladies backing up. Mention eye contact with Neighbor in whirl.::
