This factoid from the wiki is hilarious.
In Brazil Panaka’s name was changed to “Panassi” due to the fact that his name is similar to “panaca” which means "douchebag."

Making Panaka eventually side with the Empire in the EU almost seems like punishment for actor Hugh Quarshie since he declined to return for AOTC.
