No relation ranskye. You and the Brits call sparidae 'bream'. In the US, most spadidae are called 'porgy', except for the sheephead. Where KFG lives, 'bream' is a catch-all name for a group of freshwater centrarchid sunfish. She probably has bluegill sunfish, Lepomis macrochirus, but it could be one of the others.
