  The default entry type created for a Section (all types) gets the same name and handle as the Section itself.
  
  You can change the default entry type's name and/or handle by visiting Settings -> Sections, clicking on "Edit Entry Types" next to the appropriate Section, and finally by clicking the relevant entry type's name.
