==Etymology==
{{quotation|The name arose due to a lack of creativity on my part when I made the first release.  I just took the name ''Babelfish'' (the famous translation engine on Altavista) and adapted it a bit to give ''Lojbanic fish''.  So originally I guess it links back to ''The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy'' by Douglas Adams, but with rather a lot of obscure adaption.|[[Richard Curnow]]}}
