I really don't think we should consider these actual "pigs." Beyond being pinkish, they look nothing like pigs (unlike, say, [[Pigarithm]]), and the name is clearly just a way to play off "squiggle," with the variants taking on a theme naming. Also, the language-of-origin name simply references their geometric design.

:Yeah, this description has been up for years now and it's always made me confused.

Full Metal Moogle
Octorock?
I think not. They have almost no connection whatsoever. They spit rocks. That's it. And the whole "Squid" thing is also pretty ridiculous. Just because "Squig" is close to "squid" does not mean that they are related to Octorocks. And Octorocks are octopi. Not squid.
So I removed that POV. Tell me if you think that my choice was dumb. ;) .
"Pigs"

I really don't think we should consider these actual "pigs." Beyond being pinkish, they look nothing like pigs (unlike, say, Pigarithm), and the name is clearly just a way to play off "squiggle," with the variants taking on a theme naming.
