Well that's the funny thing.

In Korean, 고래 means whale. By adding a prefix 돌, it becomes 돌고래 meaning dolphin ("dol-whale"). 돌 (dol) can mean a variety of things.

Whereas Net Dolphin Madame should be 망돌고래마담 (Net Dol-whale Madame),

the 고래 part is missing altogether, making it 망돌마담 (Net "Dol"-Madame)

The biggest problem is, what does "dol" mean in this case?

SIU sorta made up this word Dol-Madame. By comparison, a Dol-Madame is to a Madame as a dolphin is to a whale. So in all technicality, Net Dolphin Madame is probably the correct translation, and SIU probably said the other nonsensical thing as a shortened form.
