Etymology[]
Its name is likely formed from multiple words being merged as with a number of other enemies from Final Fantasy VII. The ラウ (rau?) might come from "round" (ラウンド, raundo?) in reference to its mouth. It is likely that the ミュ (myu?) comes from "mutant" (ミュータント, myūtanto?).
The ババ (baba?) in its name may derive from creatures such as the Baba Yaga (バーバ・ヤーガ, Bāba Yāga?) (who have chicken legs which the creature slightly resembles), and the Babaroga (who has a horn which the creature has something resembling). "Baba" means "old woman" in various Slavic languages. baba (婆?) is also a Japanese word meaning "old woman", and the onibaba (鬼婆?) is a figure in Japanese folklore. While the creature does not specifically resemble an old woman, it does appear to have a human face, including a nose.
