It doesn't sound stupid, it just sounds bad, though. It sounds like a lazy psuedo-mythic name. Not a silly pun. The pun wouldn't have been made were the name in English because it doesn't sound funny or good in any way.

Plus, it's just dumb that he and he alone has a translated name for the sake of an eye-rolling pun that has so little meaning to the character. It reminds me of a kid who's just recently discovered anime and Japanese translations, and translates proper nouns into awkward words so as not to be typical.

I'm glad I know why they have two different names, but I'm surprised we didn't just get one of those cultural explanations that they flash at the top of the screen from time to time when the joke doesn't translate. It's interesting that they decided to put it in the actual show.

Wow, people are still getting up in arms over this?

Apparently so, Gridon or Ornac, either name sounds fine to me.
Speaking of him though I'm a bit confused with my order I had for him and the dandeliner set, I had it prordered for awhile now on HLJ and when I just checked if it went into my private warehouse it says "backordered"

Not the most veteran customer when it comes to them but I'm assuming they either didn't get enough in to meet the orders. Is this a usual thing for them?

Sadly yes. Its not happened to me but a lot of users have preordered items the day they went up only for them to go to back-order immediately, and then take months to come back into stock. Or not at all sometimes.

Its worth keeping the preorder just in case, but it might be worth seeing if you can source one elsewhere and cancelling the HLJ one if you can.

Yeah I might have to, I haven't had a problem with HLJ yet so guess my luck had to end somewhere. I'll probably just keep an eye on CStoys on Sunday since I have a few Lock Seeds I'm planning on picking up anyways.

So "discussing it" equals "up in arms?"

Sure why not. Typical internet translation.

People have always been fighting over translations though, some of the worst fights on the forums have been over translation preferences

True, but generally speaking is it really necessary to translate a proper noun like a characters' name? That'd be like if we took your screen name and insisted on calling you Team Soul :lol
