# Just to clarify
Admiral Akbar is a character in the Star Wars films.

In Return of the Jedi he says 'Its a trap'

There isn't really much more to it than that.

# It's laziness in naming
It's most likely from the Arabic Allahu Akbar.

Who the hell names an aquatic species "Mon Calamari"? Was he eating Chinese food that day?
