Types of Name Spellings
An in-progress list of character names from across the Dragon Ball universe (all series, movies, specials, etc.) is provided below. The following name spellings and additional categories are provided:
- Japanese: Character names arranged by their spelling in Japanese alphabetical order
- Romanization: A raw romanization/transliteration of the original Japanese name into the Latin alphabet
- Kanzenshuu: The name spelling currently approved by and in use here at Kanzenshuu, which may or may not be in line with other "official" spellings
- English (Dub/Game): A category of name spellings generally and primarily associated with FUNimation's (now Crunchyroll's) English dub, but may also extend to other products based on their work, such as video games released by Bandai Namco
- English (Sub): A category of name spellings largely sourced from FUNimation's English language subtitle track corresponding to the original Japanese audio from their historical DVD releases; these spellings were largely coined by Steven Simmons, with additional Dragon Ball TV series work by Clyde Mandelin; for the most part, the choices of name spellings selected and used here will ignore any corporate-overwrites (see below)
- English (Viz): The name spelling used by Viz in their English translation of the various Dragon Ball manga series
- Pun/Source: The source word, phrase, or concept that the character's name originates from (often as a pun); view an individual character's page for more specific information and breakdowns on their name sources and spelling adaptations
About Corporate Spelling Mandates
In addition to the English dub audio track, home video releases from FUNimation and their partners began including the original Japanese version of the series — a separate Japanese language audio track with accompanying English subtitles — starting in 1997 with three Dragon Ball Z films, and again in earnest in 2000 starting with Dragon Ball Z television series episodes. For the three films across 1997-1998, this included a separate subtitled VHS release, as well as bilingual/uncut LaserDisc and DVD releases; for FUNimation's in-house releases starting in 1999 (beginning with the Dragon Ball Z television series and later extending to nearly all releases for the franchise), this only included uncut/bilingual DVDs (and later Blu-rays, as VHS releases were slowly phased out, and otherwise English-dubbed only).
For the most part, the English subtitle tracks corresponding to the Japanese audio were allowed to largely and faithfully adapt the dialog and character names, without needing to adhere to choices previously made for the dub. There were minor deviations from this in the earliest days, including:
- For the 1997-1998 releases of the first three Dragon Ball Z films (Dead Zone, The World's Strongest, and The Tree of Might), even though there are separate subtitle tracks to distinctly correspond to either the English dub audio track or the original Japanese audio track, name spellings in the latter still largely mirrored those in use for the English dub, such as "Krillin" and "Master Roshi".

- For the "Captain Ginyu - Assault" and "Captain Ginyu - Double Cross" DVD releases in 2000, which marked the first in-house production of bilingual/uncut Dragon Ball Z episodes from FUNimation, the overall script in the subtitle track corresponding to the original Japanese audio track was translated faithfully, but name spellings were overwritten by corporate mandate. This practice immediately changed with the next DVD releases[1] (which skipped ahead to the "Trunks" episodes), setting the stage for much more faithful character name spellings.

Beyond these initial quirks in the earliest DVD releases, name spellings used between FUNimation's English dub, FUNimation's English subtitle track, and Latin alphabet merchandise in Japan had no particular relevance to or alignment with each other, and none were particularly beholden to another. This can most notably be seen with the prevalence of the historical "Gokou" spelling across Japanese merchandise (in contrast with the "Goku" spelling used for FUNimation's English dub, as well as in the subtitle track), but extents to a wealth of characters across the franchise's merchandising history.

Around the time of the simulcast streams for the Dragon Ball Super television series and particularly heading toward the home video release of the Dragon Ball Super: Broly theatrical film, mandates for name spellings began coming down from the rights holders in Japan, overwriting previous, long-since-established choices (ones made on both sides of the ocean). Most importantly and consequently, these name spelling choices were also forced upon the subtitle track corresponding to the Japanese audio:
- These inconsistencies popped up in amusing (if not eternally frustrating) ways, such as an in-universe drawing of the respective character with his name spelled out with the Latin alphabet as "FREEZA" by Toei's animators in Dragon Ball Super episode 94, while Toei's own simulcast subtitles placed directly over top this same image inexplicably adopted FUNimation's changed spelling of "Frieza" (even in these subtitles for the Japanese language version of the show).
- FUNimation's English dub of the Dragon Ball Super television series, supported by an underlying translation by Steven Simmons ultimately used for the home video release's subtitle track, featured faithful name spellings and adaptations including "Vermoud"[2]. This pre-Tournament of Power era seemed to be the last squeeze of name change allowances, since not only did Viz's English translation of this corresponding manga content later go with "Belmod" for a spelling, but so did FUNimation in their own DVD/Blu-ray subtitle track (despite the "Vermoud" name over in the English dub); these change mandates are supported by a single stray usage of "Geran" (instead of "Jiren") in the next episode preview within Dragon Ball Super 84 on FUNimation's home video release, hinting at even more licensor overwrites.
- This situation and mandate is perhaps no more notable than with the aforementioned "Broly" film, which in Japanese and (forced internationally) included the spelling "Broly" instead of the previous "Broli" used in FUNimation's subtitle tracks. FUNimation's home video release of this film begins with a disclaimer noting name spelling alterations that have been mandated by their Japanese partners and license holders (even in the subtitle track corresponding to the Japanese audio), marking the official divider line between previous autonomy and future compliance, even at the expense of faithfulness.

English Name Spelling Changes
FUNimation / English Dub
The following name spelling changes, alterations, or course corrections largely apply specifically to FUNimation's (now Crunchyroll's) English dub of the Dragon Ball franchise, which includes any licensed merchandise based on that work with partners such as Bandai / Bandai Namco, Irwin, etc.
- Freeza to Frieza
Ahead of the character actually appearing during FUNimation's first two seasons of syndication broadcast in America across 1996-1998, Bandai released a limited amount of figures from the Super Battle Collection line with the "Freeza" spelling.[3] This "Freeza" spelling was also used in the closed captions during the English dub syndication broadcast in dialog ahead of his appearance.[3] The character's name was spelled on screen as "Frieza" for this broadcast's 34th episode ("The Ruthless Frieza") marking the beginning point for this spelling standardization moving forward.

- Vegetto to Vegito (and back around again)
For the North American release of Dragon Ball: Final Bout (as "Dragon Ball GT: Final Bout") on the PlayStation in 1997, "Super Vegetto" was used as the character's name spelling. Ahead of the character's appearance in the respective English dub from FUNimation, licensed merchandise from Irwin began using "Vegito" as the name spelling. Another inconsistent spelling emerged with the 2003 release of the PlayStation video game Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22 in North America (originally released in 1995 in Japan), which incorrectly names Gogeta as "Vegeto". Beyond this, the "Vegito" spelling largely stuck until a random usage of "Vegetto" in the title card for episode 153 of the international "Dragon Ball Z Kai" adaptation specifically, as well as the end credits for episode 66 of the Dragon Ball Super television series — all the meanwhile, video games continued to use the "Vegito" spelling.

- Mr. Savage to Hercule
Ahead of the character's appearance in the respective English dub from FUNimation, licensed merchandise from Irwin used "Mr. Savage" as the name spelling for the character that would later be renamed "Hercule" in the edited dub (a name borrowed from the French dub), and referred to either properly as "Mr. Satan" or an incorrect "full name" of "Hercule Satan" in the "uncut" English dub. Beginning around the Kai era and in particular with video games, "Mr. Satan" saw more regular widespread usage.

- Kyabe to Cabbe to Cabba
Bandai Namco originally announced "Frost" and "Kyabe" as coming to Dragon Ball XENOVERSE 2 in October 2016 as part of the game's first paid downloadable content pack (an announcement that came ahead of the game's release).[4][5] The next month, a follow-up announcement by the company had swapped to a "Cabbe" spelling[6][7], which lined up with the "Cabbe" spelling used by Viz in their catch-up posting of the Dragon Ball Super manga's 11th chapter earlier that same month (which was the manga's first usage of the character's name in text/dialog).[8][9] By the time the game content released, the character's name was finally altered to a definitive "Cabba" spelling, which also matched that same spelling used in FUNimation's English dub.[10]

Viz / English Manga
The following name spelling changes, alterations, or course corrections largely apply specifically to Viz's official English translation of the Dragon Ball manga and its various offshoots.
- Mr. Satan to Hercule
While other names had up to this point remained faithful to their original Japanese spellings and pronunciations (or otherwise translations of such), Viz followed FUNimation in naming the character "Hercule" in their English translation of the manga. This name debuted in the September 2004 issue of the company's monthly Shonen Jump print magazine, where the chapter's introductory page concedes that he is, "...known as Mr. Satan in the original Japanese."[17] Viz's version of chapter 393 attempts to reconcile the two names, suggesting that "Mr. Satan" is his former ring name.[a] Outside of collected volume character introduction entries (which acknowledge that the original Japanese uses "Mr. Satan"), this is the only instance of Viz using "Mr. Satan" in their translations of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Super.

- Burdock to Bardock
Viz used a name spelling of "Burdock" (incidentally itself in line with Steve Simmons' name spelling choice in FUNimation's DVD subtitle track) for this character beginning with chapter 307 of the original manga (released as "Dragon Ball Z Chapter 113" at the time with the split release). This carried forward to the "Dragon Ball Minus" bonus chapter of Jaco the Galactic Patrolman released by the company in 2015. When the character was mentioned by name by Monaito in chapter 67 of the Dragon Ball Super manga in September 2021, this same "Burdock" spelling was used by Viz in their digital simulpub release. By the time the next chapter came around the following month, this text was retroactively altered to "Bardock" in chapter 76, and spelled as such moving forward, including directly within the title for chapter 77 (adapted by Viz as "Bardock, Father of Goku").

- Djinn Boo to Majin Boo
Throughout the final arc of the original Dragon Ball manga, Viz routinely used some version of "Boo the Djinn" — adapting the original Japanese term "Majin" into the Arabic term — in their English translation. Beginning with their translation of the Dragon Ball Super manga, this changed into using the untranslated Japanese phrase as "Majin Boo" (though still adapting "Boo" as such, as opposed to FUNimation's "Buu" spelling).

About Character Ages
Japanese documentation and marketing materials have historically been consistent with their categorizations of character age ranges over time. These are notably split into three age brackets (note that translations of these are sometimes gendered, simply due to the sheer amount of male characters in Dragon Ball that they apply to):
- Childhood (幼年期 Yōnen-ki): Other than literal babies, this is the youngest bracket. Characters that fit into this category include those like Son Goku from the beginning of the manga, and Son Gohan during the Saiyan and Freeza arcs.
- Boyhood (少年期 Shōnen-ki): The next age bracket up, where the characters are still undeniably children. Characters that fit into this category include those like Son Goku during the battle with Demon King Piccolo, and Son Gohan during the battle with Cell.
- Adolescence (青年期 Seinen-ki): The top age bracket of characters still technically being children, bordering on — but crucially not quite yet — young adults. Characters that fit into this category include Son Gohan during the battle with Boo.
For characters that are already adults, but have forms or appearances over a longer span of time, terms such as "Early" (前期 Zen-ki), "Mid" (中期 Chū-ki), and "Late" (後期 Kō-ki) are typically used.[18]
FUNimation's English dub (and therefore a variety of official English-language merchandise, such as video game localizations) uses different, and often times wildly inaccurate, terminology for certain characters. The most notable of these is "Teen Gohan" used in reference to Son Gohan during the battle with Cell, when "Teen Gohan" more accurately refers to him during the battle with Boo, which FUNimation instead labels as "Adult Gohan". These dub-specific terms may be noted where appropriate for raw citation purposes, but are not prioritized and hold no weight on greater categorizations, spelling choices, etc.
About Sub-Franchise Delineations
A fair number of name spellings and consistent categorization styles can be traced back to video games, which often have a need to denote individual characters or transformations as selectable by the player. This grew exponentially with the Dragon Ball Heroes game series (and its Super Dragon Ball Heroes upgrade). The table below provides a wealth of these specific form names, but certain redundant categories are not listed when the character's name is otherwise exactly the same as it normally would be without the appended delineation (e.g., "Son Goku: GT"). Some of these include:
- "Xeno": Denoting a form of a character that is either a Time Patroller or somehow otherwise ripped out of time
- "GT": Denoting a form of a character from the Dragon Ball GT television series
- "BR": Denoting a form of a character from the Dragon Ball Super: Broly theatrical film
- "SH": Denoting a form of a character from the Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero theatrical film
- "Mini": Denoting a child form of a character from the Dragon Ball Daima television series
Certain other deliniations (e.g., "EX" vs. "Xeno" vs "Future" for Gohanks) may still be listed due to their one-off nature, non-standard usage, etc.

Notes
- ↑ Though explained this way well ahead of time, without the proper context, and inadvertently so, this explanation incidentally somewhat lines up with lore eventually shared by Akira Toriyama in 2009's Super Exciting Guide: Character Volume, which notes that the character's real name is simply "Mark" and that "Mr. Satan" is indeed just a stage name.
