Maybe its name is based on OSHA. It's the Occupational Safety and Health Administration Water Otter. He walks around with a clipboard, and hands out OSHA violation notices. (This is a joke.)

:Jokes belong on the forums, not on article talk pages. In all seriousness, I think it comes from ''Ocean'' and ''otter''. No idea where the W comes from. Water maybe? --[[User:AndyPKMN|Andy<sup>P</sup><sub>K</sub><sup>M</sup><sub>N</sub>]] [[User talk:AndyPKMN|(talk)]] 13:29, 23 November 2010 (UTC) | :Jokes belong on the forums, not on article talk pages.

Has anyone considered that its English name may come from Ocean + Shell + Water + Otter? I think that shell is where the "sh" comes from and then it is combined with the similar sound in "ocean". The think the "wott" just comes from water and otter. [[User:NightSky|NightSky]] 18:36, 23 November 2010 (UTC) |
