^ The whale was named after the milky-white waxy substance, spermaceti, found in its head and originally mistaken for sperm or semen. -wiki

Scientists still do not know the precise purpose of the spermaceti organ. It is believed that it controls the whale's bouyancy, to assist it in diving and ascending. It is also possible that the organ is used to amplify and direct the sound waves, that the whale uses for echolocation. -random website
