Koupen-chan’s name is derived from “Emperor Penguin Baby". “Emperor Penguin” in Japanese is koutei pengin (皇帝ペンギン) and “baby” is aka-chan (赤ちゃん). So Koupen-chan is a shortening of koutei pengin no aka-chan.
Since Koupen-chan is an affirming (also koutei - 肯定, the red text in the image below) baby emperor penguin, they’re also a koutei suru koutei pengin no aka-chan (肯定する皇帝ペンギンの赤ちゃん).
Affirming (Baby) Emperor Penguin
