In the Swedish printing of the story 

W DDBP  6-04 The Golden Sea Shell

In Kalle Anka & C:o no 26 1964 the name of the parrot that Goofy has is
"Kapten Knark". Now that is at least nowadays a strange name because it
means Captain narcotics. Knark is common phrase for "narkotika" that is
narcotics in English.
Maybe it didn't mean narcotics in 1964. I was only three years old then
so I don't know. Any Swedes here that can enlighten us on this ?

So can anyone tell me the original name of the parrot ? It would be fun
to know.
