Name Spellings
This is probably the issue in DB/DBZ/DBGT that
recieves the most debate attention. How on Chikyuu do you
spell their names? And what about those wierd, different but
similar names you've seen on the internet? Well, those are
the Japanese names by the way. For each main character, I
will say the true spelling of their name (or what I believe
it to truthfully be), their Japanese counterpart, and all
other popular but wrong spellings of the name. Here we go,
boys and girls!
