Supreme Kai Name Meaning
Does any body know where the name of the Supreme Kai of universe 2, Pell or Peru comes from? I am thinking that it comes from a mythological creature or something like that. I've looked everywhere, but I haven't been able to find it. Choose your favorite casino and play online casino for real money 700wilshireloft.com/. Awesome bonuses are waiting for you. Good luck!

I know it’s the wikia, which is almost entirely shit but the Dragon Ball wikia reckons it comes from the Slavic God “Perun” which is probably as good as guess as any

Re: Supreme Kai Name Meaning
That’s our current best guess, too. From Terez’s forthcoming Kanzenshuu wiki writeup-
Peru's name pun is unknown, but many Kaiōshin appear to have been named after deities, and Perun (ペルーン Perūn), the god of thunder and lightning in Slavic mythology, is a likely source for his name. The character name drops the last character of the katakana used to write "Perun" in Japanese. Note that Perun is one of many mythological deities (such as Perkūnas, Persephone, Perseus, etc.) whose name begins with "Per" and is written with ペル (peru) in Japanese.
