Historical Background[]

Calamari is the word used for squids used for food. It is the Italian plural of calamaro, which derives from the Latin calamarium, meaning "ink pot" and calamus "ink". Calamari can thus be said to be the name for varieties of squid which are used as food for humans. Colossal is an adjective referring to something of immense size, giant. A Colossal Calamari could be an immense squid of one of the varieties consumed by people, but was probably chosen as a name because of the pleasing alliteration.
