Where does the cuttlefish get its name?

The name "cuttlefish" is derived from the Old English Word "cudele," which means "squid," combined with the term "fish," although cuttlefish are not true fish. The name reflects their resemblance to fish and their unique characteristics as cephalopods, closely related to octopuses and squids. The cuttlefish is also known for its distinctive internal shell, called the cuttlebone, which aids in buoyancy.
