'Sea wolf' is what my wife has always been told her name means in
Chamorro / Guamanian (by her Chamorro relatives). I've long wondered what
a sea wolf is, though I've heard the phrase in Portuguese songs for
years. (And Spanish is closely related, and the Spanish ruled Guam for
centuries.) So now I know it's all about seals. I don't think my wife
would enjoy being called ulXayu7 or sawash kushu, though. :-)
