It looks and acts similar to a traditional Japanese bandit, and specifically that of the leader, bearing more formal samurai-esque armor and features. It is speculated that Bisharp's design is based on the "Gurren" mecha from the anime series, "Gurren Lagann". It may also have gained origin from the Kaijin style of Japanese monster movies, involving a humanoid creature that acts as a villain.

Bisharp is a combination of ''{{wp|Bishop (chess)|bishop}}'' (a piece in {{wp|chess}}) and ''sharp'' (describing its metal blades); akin to {{p|Pawniard}} evolving into Bisharp, a {{wp|pawn (chess)|pawn}} in chess can be {{wp|Promotion (chess)#Promotion to rook or bishop|promoted}} into a bishop piece (among other chess pieces classes) if it reaches the opponent's side of the board. It may also involve to  ''bisect'' (to cut or split into two), referring to the lethality of Bisharp's cutting abilities. Its name could also refer to the twin blades on its torso (derived from the numerical prefix ''{{wp|bi-}}'', meaning "two" in Latin).
