TIL about False cognates, pairs of words [with] similar sounds and meaning, but different etymologies; "For example, the English word dog and the Mbabaram word dog"

There is a table of examples in the link. Some I saw include:

Desert

• desert Latin dēserō ("to abandon") << ultimately PIE **seh₁- ("to sow")
• Ancient Egyptian: Deshret (refers to the land not flooded by the Nile)  from dšr (red)

Shark

• shark Middle English shark from uncertain origin
• Chinese 鲨 (shā)  Named as its crude skin similar to sand (沙 (shā))

Kayak

• Inuktitut ᖃᔭᖅ (kayak) Proto-Eskimo *qyaq
• Turkish kayık ('small boat')[17] Old Turkic kayguk << Proto-Turkic kay- ("to slide, to turn")

A lot of these could be TIL posts of their own.

I also wonder if some of these are actually false cognates, or if there is a much earlier common origin with false associations that came afterwards
