P.S. A good dictionary will give you the definitions:
Main Entry: goon
Pronunciation: 'gün
Function: noun
Etymology: probably short for English dialect gooney (simpleton)
Date: 1921
1 : a stupid person
2 : a man hired to terrorize or eliminate opponents
Main Entry: gob·lin
Pronunciation: 'gäb-l&n
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English gobelin, from Middle French, from Medieval Latin gobelinus, ultimately from Greek kobalos rogue
Date: 14th century
: an ugly or grotesque sprite that is mischievous and sometimes evil and malicious
Now, compare the definitions and what do you have?
