 ==The Jabun connection==
 It has been speculated that [[Jabun]] (TWW) is the same as, or has some connection with, Jabu-Jabu. There are some facts that may suggest they are just one character:
-*Jabun's name is really similar to Jabu-Jabu's (Jabun's name is even more similar in the Spanish version, Yabú, this is pronunced by a Spaniard very similar to "Jabu")
+*Jabun's name is really similar to Jabu-Jabu's. (Jabun's name is even more similar in the Spanish version, Yabú, this is pronunced by a Spaniard very similar to "Jabu")
 *Jabun speaks only [[Hylian]] so he must be a really ancient creature.
-*The music that sounds in Jabun's cavern is an adaptation from the music that sounded [[Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly]]
+*The music that sounds in Jabun's cavern is an adaptation from the music that sounded [[Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly]].
-*The symbol of [[Nayru's Pearl]] is the [[Zora's Sapphire]], the [Spiritual Stones|Spiritual Stone]] that [[Ruto (Zora)|Ruto]] lost inside Jabu-Jabu.
+*The symbol of [[Nayru's Pearl]] is the [[Zora's Sapphire]], the [[Spiritual Stones|Spiritual Stone]] that [[Ruto (Zora)|Ruto]] lost inside Jabu-Jabu.
 On the other hand, unlike Jabu-Jabu, Jabun speaks and '''does''' have magical powers (maybe we are just underestimating Jabu-Jabu's powers). He also looks completely different, more like a whale. What's more, Jabun seems to have never met the [[Hero of Time]] because, unlike the Great Deku Tree, Jabun doesn't recognize the green garbs. Perhaps Jabun is a descendant of Jabu-Jabu, or has simply taken on a similar role and name because of Zora traditions.

 It is almost certain that the Jabu-Jabu in OoT, and the one in OoA, are different, not the same. This is because, in most reasonable single-Ganon theories, the Oracle games must come after OoT. It is even more likely that they come after ALttP, which happens centuries after OoT. Now, when I say that OoA comes centuries after OoT, I don't just mean a few. I mean a lot. This is especially true in the standard NOA order, though it is not so clear in Miyamoto's order. Since there is only a 400 year difference between the OoA present and past, I conclude that the OoA past happens after OoT. Now, in OoT, Lord Jabu-Jabu is already full-grown. In the OoA past, Jabu-Jabu is still a baby. Obviously, Jabu-Jabu is not going to be grown, then a baby, then grown again. And even if you say that the OoA past somehow happens before OoT, it is just as unlikely that, during the 400 year gap, the Zoras moved from Labrynna, to Hyrule, and back again, with Jabu-Jabu. So, in any case, it is untenable to consider the two Jabu-Jabus in OoT and OoA as the same.
