Supposedly the original spelling was
Gouk, pronounced like Coke.
...it was later made into KOK, meaning King Of Kings...but Whatever and Whatever. Its Flowerhorns, we can do and say whatever we like.
Of many people dont like wiki, its good info...notice all the different types of names given to strains at the very bottom of the wiki page.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flowerhorn_cichlid And even nowadays people come up with crazy names. You can even cross your own breeds and name it yourself, and if the fish is beautiful and consistent then the name will carry on.
