Ferengi is native to the planet Ferenginar in the Alpha Quadrant. Profit and free enterprise were the primary drivers of Ferengi civilization, both socially and culturally as well as economically.
Ferengi physiology has a notable impact on the way they pronounce certain syllables and this influences the sounds popular in their names. Gutterals are prominent, as are the letters R and K.
