[edit] Derivations

I was thinking of this the other day,and it it struck me that the name of the Quarren and Mon Cal homeplanet may be derived from the words Salmon and Calamari,well calamari is Italian for squid,and the Mon Cals do have the large fish eyes and some do have a salmon coloring,,and most associate the color and image of Admiral Ackbar with the name of Mon Cal.

There is some similarity in how they sound, but to include information like this in Wikipedia we'd need some sort of external source backing it up as well. The Wikipedia:No original research policy seems applicable here. Bryan

[edit] Inaccuracies

I don't think Mon Calamari can breathe underwater. In Jedi Apprentice: The Captive Temple , Bant, a Mon Calamarian, is imprisoned underwater. The book describes the urgency in getting her out, saying "Bant could survive for long periods of time, but she needed air to breathe."" Inclusive disjunction 03:42, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
