Bug Description
In the Backgrounds tab of the Appearance Preferences, we have a few options on a backgrounds "style". Of those options we have "Tiled" "Zoom" "Centered" "Scaled" and "Fill Screen"
Arguably "Zoom", "Tile", and "Fill Screen" all fill the screen. "Tile" is pretty obvious, "Fill Screen" stretches the image to fill the screen, and "Zoom" zooms in on the image until it fills the screen.
Perhaps "Fill Screen" should be renamed "Stretch"

From dup:
In the Background tab of Appearance Preferences, there is a place to select the background's "style". Options listed here are "Tiled", "Zoom", "Centered", "Scaled", and "Fill Screen". These names don't seem to match up in their verb tense.
It should be more like "Tile", "Zoom", "Center", "Scale", and "Fill Screen"
