Trivia
Origin
It may have been based on any number of lizards with extending tongues, commonly the blue-tongued lizard.
Name origin
Lickitung's name is a combination and corruption of lick and tongue. The bero in Beroringa may be derived from ベロ bero, tongue, べろべろ, berobero, an onomatopoeia for a licking sound, or べろべろ嘗める beroberonameru, to lick up with one's tongue. Ringer is most likely derived from English ring, referring to the patterns on its body. It is also possible that ringa is a corruption of the English word lingua, which refers to a tongue or an organ resembling a tongue [1].
In other languages
- German: Schlurp - This name comes from the word slurp.
- French: Excelangue - Excellent means excellent, and langue means tongue. The word as a whole sounds like excellent.
- Korean: 내루미 Naerumi
