Within the Naruto fandom, I see people misspell easy to spell names all the time... Let's put an end to this blasphemy and get it right.

Kakuzu is not Kakuza or Kakazu. Where the hell do people even get the extra A from when it's obviously pronounced ka-koo-zoo?

Kimimaro is not Kimimaru, Kimimmaru, Kimmimaru, Kimimmaro, or Kimmimaro. When you think about spelling it with "maru", think about Maro and bone marrow. When you add extra M's, you're only making it harder to type for yourself.

Katsuyu is a slug. Katsuya is a guy from Yugioh.

Uzumaki isn't Uzamaki. Again, where do people get the extra A's?

Jiraiya isn't Jiraya, Jaraiya or Jariya

Suigetsu isn't Sugiestu or Sugetsu or... You get the point

Sharingan... like. If you're an Uchiha fan, please don't spell it as Sharigan. Same goes for all the people who spell Sasuke as Sauke or Sauske. And please don't spell Uchiha as Uchia.

Not sure if I've ever seen Madara being misspelled on this forum, but some people have spelled it as Mandara or Marada or something worse.

Gaara isn't Garra or Garaa

Konoha as Kohana or Konaha

And lastly, Mei Terumi as Mei Terume... In Japanese there's a clear difference between the "mi" and "me" sounds. This error is quite rare compared to everything listed above, but I thought I should mention it since it's Mei :p

That's all the crap I can think of for now, but feel free to list your own.

Edit: Guess I should have expected the butthurt.

Manda is not spelled Munda

Madarak is another one

also Suigitsu, he's not bad enough to call him a git

and worst of all Pains is not Peins

I hope you realize that while spelling is an issue, these are all foreign names with a different spelling scheme than much of the Western audience is not familiar with.

Nope. Just a perfectionist. When it comes to spelling, at least.

They say Pein because that's how the Japanese spell or something. English translation of Kanji or Romanji or something like that.

It can be either one. It's like spelling Kyubi as Kyuubi.
