His English name uses the word Loiter meaning "Waiting without a purpose". Oddly enough his English name actually means to opposite of his Japanese name.
His German name Grämamba is a portmanteau of "grämen" (to grieve) and "Mamba".
His spanish name Transeúntio is a portmanteau of "transeúnte" (passerby) and "tío" (guy).
Trivia[]
