As snailplane pointed out in the comments, octopus is derived from Greek, and so the correct plural would be octopodes, not octopi. From Oxford Dictionaries.com : The standard plural in English of octopus is octopuses. However, the word octopus comes from Greek and the Greek plural form octopodes is still occasionally used. The plural form octopi, formed according to rules for some Latin plurals, is incorrect.
