That was just a lucky guess, I haven't gotten very far in this game yet so someone else can take my turn.

You could have asked a simple question ^-^...
Well, I will take this burden off your shoulders, then...

What are the Fiends names derived from?
Boy am I an unfunny ass.
Milon: A demon of Malebolge
Kainazzo: Sea of Mystery (or something like that)
Valvalis: I have absolutely no idea...
Rubicant: Ruby---? (or something like a demon of canto 22)
*If* you meant the original japanese names, they are the following:
Milon -> スカルミリョーネ (Scarmilione)
Kainazzo/Cagnazzo -> カイナッツォ (Kainazzo)
Valvalis -> バルバリシャ (Valvalisha)
Rubicant -> ルビカンテ (Rubicante)

If I'm not mistaken, wasn't the latter list was derived from Dante's Inferno.

I didn't know about Dante's Inferno (from the Divine Comedy), but I just read that the 4 emperors from FF4 are names from the book. I gotta buy it!
After some searching, I found out the names:
Scarmiglione (canto 21)
Cagnazzo (canto 21 and 22)
Rubicante (canto 21 and 22)
Barbariccia (canto 21 and 22)
If this is the right answer, abrojtm had it first. I only divulged my findings in case someone would be interrested, and for informal/educational purposes.

[i]Yep, it's Dantes Inferno.

Milon, or Scarmiglion in FF4j, is one of the demons in Malebolge, the eighth circle of Hell. His name was probably shortened to 'Milon' because of space limitations.
Rubicante is another demon in Canto XXII. His name means "he who grows red"; appropriate for the Fire Fiend.
Kainazzo, a. k. a. Cagnazzo is another demon from the same circle. It means, roughly, 'the big Kain'. Another coincidental explanation (I thought of this long ago and assumed it to be true) is the Japanese kanji 'kai' (sea) + 'nazo' (mystery). That's coincidental though. Alex Scott adds that Cagnazzo actually means "Dog Nose."
Valvalis, a. k. a. Barbariccia: (In Japanese, 'b' and 'v' sometimes aren't distinguished, like 'r' and 'l'.) Barbariccia is the leader of the ten demons that Virgil and Dante meet when exploring Hell
And from Chase: Calcabrina was one of the demons featured in Dante's Divine Comedy.

I guess you learn something new every day. That's pretty neat too. Go! Go! useless knowledge.
The older I get, the more money I make. The more money I make the cheaper I get. How the heck does this work?
bah! that's what makes an FF4 fan! (learning *everything* about the game)

Yay, since I suck at asking questions, I'll just throw in an easy one:
Q: How many prince/princesses do you meet through the course of the game?
Sigless
Easy question???
Let's see...
- Edward/Gilbert (prince of Damcyan)
Hemmmm... well....
- Is Luca the daughter of King Giott?? (If so, she's a princess)
Baron, no... Fabul, no...
Oh wait! Edge! He's the rightful heir of Eblana!... That makes three...
Mysidia, no... Sylph cave, ... duh? Cecil and Yang have no royal blood and ascend to the throne directly... I don't think FuSoYa really exists.
Golbez is the prince of darkness? nah... won't work...
I only think of three (Gilbert, Edge and Luca), but since I must miss two dozen princes/princesses, I'll wait...

Those are the only three I was thinking either, unless I'm horribly, horribly mistaken. I thought of putting in the question "Barbaricca is the Princess of Wind doesn't count", but I didn't think anyone would put that. Nevertheless, it's your go.

Luca! That's the stupid princesses name! Doh!
