Okay, so do we really consider the possibility that the Urdaibai in Basque Country is involved in its name in any way? Just being located in Spain doesn't make it a possible origin. The double "ai" is a stretch, as it's separated by a "b", which may be just a single letter, but it completely ruins the small resemblance the name would have had otherwise. Urdaibai isn't even related to aye-ayes or graffiti in any way; for all we know there could be other Spanish locations with double "ai", among which Urdaibai isn't any more (or less) possible. I say one and a half similarities is just coincidence. Just how it was disagreed that Rowlet was named after J. K. Rowling because it's spelled similarly and her best-known book has owls as partners in it. Kikugi (talk) 15:43, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
- Urdaibai is where the Oma forest is; aka the real life painted forest that most likely inspired Grafaiai's tree painting behavior. it's different from Rowlet/Rowling because it's not like Rowling invented the concept of owls. Anzasquiddles (talk) 16:07, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
