Etymology
It bears a resemblance in both name and appearance to the Pokémon Wooper. This is down to fact that they are both based on the real world axolotl, a type of salamander.
Also the adding of trooper to the end slightly resembles the turtle character from mario, The Koopa Troopa - which itself was likely a nod to the Abba song "Super Trouper", as well as being a generally obvious rhyme to use.
