Morphology

Bajoran = Bajor (transparent) = Bajor + an

Formed by the regular demonym-forming suffix '-an' attached to the place name 'Bajor', so the relation is directly derivable.

Etymology

Bajoran comes from Bajor, the name of a planet in the Star Trek stories, plus the ending -an which means 'from' or 'related to'. So Bajoran as an adjective means 'from Bajor' or 'about the Bajor people, their culture, or things from there'.
