This is weird.

The etymology trivia regarding Garren was written when Garren's article was first published back in 2008, meaning that whoever originally wrote the article back then likely got the name reference wrong, and then Garren probably didn't come from Galleon at all.

I tried looking up the Japanese name instead for any clues, and I found a post saying that "Garren" may have come from the Japanese pronunciation of the word "currency" (キャレンシー). However, I delved deeper into it and the actual transliteration of "currency" is カレンシー, which puts the former transliteration into question...
