Two Things About The Navigator
Colom means dove in Catalonian; a frequent family name. The spaniards don't know how to pronounce Catalonian words: the myriad Catalonian words that finish in -om, -am, -em, -um, im..., the spaniards transform them into macaronics -on, -un, -in..., etc.
Catalonian makes mute the -r finishing any word. Thus Cristòfor, sounds in Catalonian Cristofo. Due to the fact that Catalonian abhorrs words that finish in -o, automatically an l is added to the word. Thus from bando, bàndol, from where our bandoleer is coming... Same thing with Cristofo -- it became Cristòfol... Here's the secret of your self-determined l.
