"Buu" is the sound pigs make in Japanese onomatoepeia, so combined with pig - the two names mean essentially the same things.

Grumpig (Japanese: ブーピッグ Boopig; German: Groink; French: Groret) is a Psychic-type Pokémon.

Name origin

Grumpig's name is likely just a combination of "grunt" and "pig". Boopig is probably derived from ぶうぶう būbū, grumbling, and pig.

It's possible the inspiration for Grumpig came from the proverb "do not cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under your feet". The pearls were supposed to represent wisdom given to an audience who wouldn't appreciate the teachings. Grumpig and Spoink appear to instead use those pearls of wisdom to enhance their mental powers.
