Katakana spelling is standard for this fish name; usually written in kana.
Kanji spelling is rare and may be encountered in older or specialized texts.
Alternate kanji spelling, also rare.
The name likely derives from 輪抜け (wake, 'ring removal' or 'ring-shaped') and 奴 (yakko, a term used in many fish names), referring to the ring marking. The exact origin is uncertain.
