The Japanese name of the character's father ([[Giovanni]] in the English versions) is {{wp|Sakaki}}. {{wp|Sakaki}} is a common surname in Japan, which indicate that his name in Japan is merely his last name, leaving his first unknown. Being Giovanni's son, the character would obviously inherit from his father this surname ({{wp|Sakaki}}) in the Japanese versions. The games in the Japanese version imply that the name of the character may be simply the same as the father (actually the surname).
