So basically, I'm reading The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy trilogy in English currently (I've already read it in French), I just finished the first book.
There's a particular wordgame I can't understand - I've asked my English teacher but she did not find either.

It's in the end part, when they get to Magrathea. The planet has two twin suns, "Soulianis and Rahm". Is there a wordplay in it? In french, there's one: the two suns are called "Soulépav et Laplaj", which refers to a May 68 slogan.

Help would be really appreciated
