Yes, except that when we first met the Bajorans on TNG they were
refered to as the Bajora, and so was their planet. This was changed
to the more American Bajorans and Bajor, but die-hard Bajora
still use the original term. Whether the Klingons do is up to MO.
While I'm thinking of it, are both *qarDasya'*ngan and *qarDaS*ngan
"correct" (i.e. grammatically) for Cardassian? This follows the
Organian pattern (cf. TKD 116, 145).
