Being an anime fan and hating most Japanese names, that makes so much sense.

What's wrong with Naruto, an entire city has the name and I doubt they would call it the worst name ever.

L is a codename.

The last isn't even the character's name and even then the name is borrowed from Sarutobi Sasuke. A kind of famous historical figure.

How about coming up with some bad names instead of randomly picking names from shows you just didn't like?

I figured that /spoiler was the name as whole and not a surname/given name combo.

Most of the names in Umineko are common western names, so I don't see how you can find them retarded

Eg. Jessica, George, Maria, Rosa, Beatrice

I assume it's his surname and given name since in the same volume it was revealed they also revealed Near's and Mello's real names

Ah, if only this was the "Names I dislike" or "Poisoning the well" thread, then your ramblings about a character ruining a name would make sense.

I assume it's his surname and given name since in the same volume it was revealed they also revealed Near's and Mello's real names

Near and Mello aside, L's name itself looked rather unique and had a one name(A Pimp Named Slickback) feel to it.

Actually it does when you learn kanji.

One of the good things I can say about dubs is that they are professionals and not openly racist pricks that would say "Raito" in a recorded performance.

Okay.
No more than awful internet fanfic/story writers that name their characters things like "Hate" with no surname or "Sorrow Bloodtears" to show how deep as fuck their character is because with a name like "Pain" you just know that edgy character has been through a lot.

So keeping the character's original name is racism? They sure as hell didn't have a problem with keeping Yagami.

月 is his original name. That is Light. "Raito" is just the Japanese phonetic pronunciation of that word. Pretending to speak with a Japanese accent just for that name is racist.

I'm sure you find japanese peopre speaking in engrish perfectry acceptabre then. You don't need to fake an accent to pronounce it.

Because, you know, speaking in another language is undeniably racist. All dubs should be done by 4kids so that all references to anything remotely japanese in a japanese show becomes nonexistent. Wouldn't want to be racist.

Like I said. Dubbers aren't openly racist dicks and wouldn't mock someone's accent just for a laugh or switch to phonetics when an actual translation makes more sense.

No, instead they put no effort into their work and we receive a laughably atrocious excuse of acting. But that's another thread's problem.

You don't seem to have a very firm grasp on what racism is. While saying the name Raito would be unforgivable because it can directly translate, there's no problem with Yagame because, hey, why the hell would we name him Light Jackson? What the hell kind of american can say Rye-toe anyway? That would be a mockery of the almighty japanese honor.

For me...the worst character name has to be Yugi.
As a child, I was told that society is a melting pot of talents; knowledge and experience combined to form important alloys that will contribute to mankind. When I got to highschool, however, I thought that it's more like a river in which the water represents our peers while we ourselves are the stones in the river. Constant erosion by mindless majority sheeping has made us lose our unique edge. After I hit the age of 18, I realized that I've been wrong all along. Society is no melting pot. Society is no river. Society is a person, a very skilled rapist, and he has fucked us all.
