:::"Lilliput actually has nothing to do with being small or short in stature"???! What?! Do you know ''anything'' about Gulliver's Travels? (And since when is anything from the 18th century called "pop culture", anyway?) Whatever, "lilliputian" is the only thing I ever even tried to put on the page, and it's really not that important. Just confused by your statement. --[[User:HeroicJay|HeroicJay]] 23:38, 8 February 2011 (UTC) | :::"Lilliput actually has nothing to do with being small or short in stature"???! What?!

::::While it is not really popular now, it is still considered "popular culture", as it has to do with something well known and or famous, though that doesn't mean it's incredibly popular.

Edited the French name origin - chiot = puppy. Only possible resemblance I could find for Pon was 'Pom-pon' which (on the page) explains reference to Scottish Highlands. | |||
