Lore & Background

Okrand said the Klingons would call their planet several things, just as Earth is called "the world" or "Terra". In Star Trek Into Darkness, Starfleet personnel spell and say the name as Kronos.

The Klingons who come from it are a humanoid species created by screenwriter Gene L. Coon in 1967.
