llama

One 'llama' — the woolly Andean pack animal — comes from Spanish llama, borrowed from Quechua llama. A separate 'llama' — an older English spelling for a Buddhist teacher or monk — was borrowed from Tibetan བླ་མ (bla ma).

The animal's name passed from Quechua speakers in the Andes into Spanish and then into English essentially unchanged in meaning. The Tibetan word for a spiritual teacher was borrowed separately and at times spelled the same way in English before settling as 'lama.'

The facts don't show a connection between these two — they're a coincidence of spelling, not shared ancestry, so the animal has no true etymological cousin here.
