Last night, I realized a small connection between Naruto and Japanese culture.

Naruto's favourite's food, ramen is linked to a city called Fukuoka in Japan, where their pork ramen is famously delicious (I can account for that) and Fukuoka is on Kyushu, with that linking to Kyuubi by numbers (Kyuu = Nine) which links us back to Naruto.

Interesting, but I would guarantee you that not even Kishi knows this.

Cool.

Another fun fact: is the name of a Japanese city. There are that can be found nearby and as you should know, the Uzumaki clan's symbol is the shape of a whirlpool.

Yup, and Tenten's name ties in with the name of a Japanese ellipsis, Ten-ten meaning "mark-mark".
