| Verry from the word "green" (''Verde'' in Spanish and Italian), Woody is obviously from wood, as he's the Grass Leader. I don't believe that they'll keep Dent, as they'd have to keep all three, as they make the pun together. And I'm sure that NoA wouldn't want a character named "Corn". | | Verry from the word "green" (''Verde'' in Spanish and Italian), Woody is obviously from wood, as he's the Grass Leader.

| | | I expected some creativity from NoA. While I did consider that they could leave the name be, I'd really rather them to change it. The more Japanese-based the name translations are, the worse they are. It's too early to judge yet but I really hope that NoA's naming doesn't lose its originality. | ||
