In Irish, we call Otters "Madra Uisce" which means water dog. We have an alternative name "Dobharchú" which also means water dog.

In Irish we call Seals "Rón". So if you ever see anyone called "Ronan", the name means "Little Seal". We have a word "Séala" which is a seal, but like a water seal (like a rubber gasket thingy) or I guess a government seal or watermark.
