Have you ever wondered what they call certain characters in Japan? If you have, then you’re in the right place! If not…then…click here to go back.
You say you know some Japanese names? Well then, send them to me and you’ll see them up here…and I also give credit where credit is due.
One last note: Remember that in Japanese, last names come first. So if my first and last names were “V” and “Babe”, respectively, then I would be called “Babe V” in Japan. Weird example, I know, but hey…it works, right?
“V-Babe, I’m getting tired of your blabbing”
OK, then I’ll hush and let you see the Japanese names!
