The name of Goku's wife.

Post by B » Thu Apr 16, 2009 6:15 pm

Is there a fixed spelling for it? Chi-chi, Chi-Chi, Chichi, ChiChi...

I've always used "Chi-Chi" since that was Viz uses, but I have been leaning towards using "Chichi" for some reason.

I'm failry certain if there was dash/minus sign, it would be included in the katakana spelling of her name. Anyone?

If you end up absolutely stumped, there's always "チチ"

Hmmm. I think 'Chichi' is the most correct. There is no hyphen in the spelling.

I found "CHI-CHI", "CHICHI", "Chi-chi" and "Chichi" on official Japanese material.
Heh. So helpful.

I spell it "Chi-Chi" with a hyphen, but that's just me.

My personal spelling is "Chi-Chi". It's the way I've always spelt it, even before I got the Viz manga, which spells Chi-Chi like that.
