This article describes a list of the hypothesized origins of the names of characters in the Polvina and the Errors.
== Table ==
Character name	Language of origin	Meaning 	Etymology
Alaska 	Aleut 	"mainland" or "that toward which the action of the sea is directed"	Alaska is named directly after the US state of Alaska, which comes from the Russian word "Аляска" ("Aljaska"), which in turn comes from the Aleut word "alaxsxaq", which either means "mainland" or in the more literal sense "that toward which the action of the sea is directed".
The original Aleut term itself is composed of three parts "alag" ("pertaining to the sea") (also used in Aromanian for "to run"), the nominalizing suffix "-sxa" (yielding 'the objective of action expressed by the root') and the ending suffix "-q", a singular suffix in the absolute case.
It is a common misconception that the Russian word "ала" ("ala") and the suffix "-ский" ("-skij") make up his name, though "-ский" ("-skij") is where we also get the original of the suffix "-ki" in the end of Puffki's name.
Polvina 	Portuguese 	"Octopus girl" 	Polvina's name descends from the Portuguese word "polvo" (meaning octopus). The term itself decends from the Old Galician-Portuguese word "polbo", from the Latin word "polypus" (octopus), from the Ancient Greek word "πολύπους" ("polúpous").
It is also a doublet of the word "pólipo".
It is cognate with Galician "polbo", Spanish "pulpo", Italian "polpo", and French "poulpe" and "pieuvre".
The suffix "-ina" at the end is probably used for feminine names.
