The family's name is a combination of "blow", given the enemies' abilities to blow from their snouts, and {{w|Pig|hogs}}. True to the name, the grounded enemies in this family oink like real-life pigs. Some of the creatures' Japanese names use the word {{j|ドックリ|dokkuri}}, because of how their snouts and bodies resemble a {{w|Sake set#Server|Tokkuri}} bottle, which is what is used to serve sake with. The genus name for members of this family is ''Sus'', which is Latin for "pig". | The family's name is a combination of "blow", given the enemies' abilities to blow from their snouts, and {{w|Pig|hogs}}.
