    I just thumbed through a FFXII strategy guide and I realized that the Espers are Lucavi!

    Cuchulainn = Queklain (Draclau's Lucavi)
    Belias = Velius (Wiegraf's Lucavi)
    Zalera = Zalera (Elmdor's Lucavi)
    Adrammelech = Adramelk (Dycedarg's Lucavi)
    Hashmal = Hashmalum (Vormav's Lucavi)
    Ultima = Altima (Alma's Lucavi)
    Zodiark = Zodiac (Elidib's Summon)

    The other Espers may represent the other, unnamed Lucavi in FFT:

    Mateus
    Shemhazai
    Exodus
    Zeromus
    Famfrit
    Chaos

    Although many share names with bosses from other FFs, like X-Death and Chaos.

    This makes sense since there were thirteen Lucavi, if you include Serpentarius.

    On a side note, they match up with the Zodiac alignments and stones, which long confirms my suspicions that Hashmalum is associated with the Leo stone, while Altima is associated with the Virgo stone. You never actually get to see those stones because you get them right after the final battle.
