You don’t have to be a fan of the medium to admit that some anime names are just crazy, stupid cool. I mean, can you imagine having a child named Naruto and screaming their name like an anime villain whenever you come to pick them up from school or whenever you just feel particularly dramatic? There’s no better feeling tbh. If you’re a Nigerian who is interested in giving your kids Japanese names that kinda sound like Nigerian names, here are 31 of the coolest there are.
Note: Most of the names on this list are from popular animes (Naruto, Bleach, Sword Art Online, Dragon Ball, Mob Psycho, etc) that are watched worldwide.
