Naming NotesKaragatan is Tagalog for the word "ocean." Oceans have been used to symbolize strength and perseverance in media and various cultures. Similarly, bacteriophages have this quality of strength and perseverance with their various defense mechanisms and means of survival. Their existence alone is incredibly fascinating and they also have a lot that has yet to be discovered about them (just like the ocean).
