IIRC she wasn't, but I still call her that because it should logically be her last name.

As for the androids, wasn't a fan of Gero. #19 was amazing though, i thought he was a wicked enemy. He was a big change to the series concept wise he just was awesome.
A lot of people hate Yamucha because they didn't see Dragonball and to them he's just "some mysterious failure who instantly died in the Saiya-jin Arc then got pwned instantly in the Jinzoningen Arc and got his girlfriend stolen from him." Chaozu pretty much does nothing but sacrifice himself to try to save Tenshinhan in DBZ too, unfortunately. And a lot of people hate him because of his design and the fact that he doesn't get to do much.

People don't really care for Kid Buu and Hirudegarn but I like the kind of ancient evil monster who cares for nothing but destruction, returning to wreck havoc. It dismantles the idea that the new fighters are always stronger than the older people, which is present in Shonen. Also how they pretty much annhilated and beasted everyone who crossed their path and required Goku pulling his last hope out, just to win.
Interesting point about dismantling the idea of the newer being stronger than the older. I actually like both of those guys a lot. Chibi Boo was hilarious, and even though his character mirrored that of the Saibaimen and the Cell Juniors he was far more entertaining than either of them. He had many entertaining scenes, especially in the Anime. Hirudegarn was a pretty original guy too, especially how he could just vanish completely and reappear again whenever he wanted.
I don't think Kuririn is hated that much. Of the four Earthlings he's the one who stays in the spotlight for the longest and the lack of spotlight in Z seems to be one big reason people hate Yamucha and Chaozu so much. Though there's always a group of people who hate the Earthlings for the sole reason that they're "weak."
