==Naming==
==Names in other languages==
The English name "'''Porcupo'''" derives from "{{wp|porcupine}}," a large rodent with quills. It has been employed as the enemy's English name since the international release of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', though it is generically referred to as a "'''porcupine'''" in the English instruction booklet for ''[[Mario Kart 64]]''. In the English guidebook and official website for ''Mario Kart 64'', they are referred to as "'''Spinys'''," mirroring how the name "Chubby" is applied to the [[Monty Mole]]s in the game and incidentally shared with the recurring [[Spiny|spiked Koopa enemy]].
 
"Porcupo" is the exercised name in most localizations. However, its original name in Japanese「ハリマンネン」(''Harimannen'') as well as its name in Korean "고슴이" (''Goseumi'') derive from the local names for {{wp|hedgehog}}s. As hedgehogs are unrelated to porcupines, these names more directly relate to the asserted basis of the enemy's design.<ref name=perfect/>
