If people don't know, lots of resistence members are named after Birds (I think it was) in a different language.(French, I think). It also made me think of other characters, and I think Ciel may come from a french word. This is from the AOL dictionary:
Main Entry: aide-toi, le ciel t'ai·dera
Pronunciation: ed-twå l&-'syel-te-drå
Usage: foreign term
Etymology: French
: help yourself (and) heaven will help you
and if I'm correct, ciel is in the same posetion as Heaven. I think they made that to follow a pattern. Dr. Hikira( obviously Dr. light in Japanesse) Dr. Light(Duh!) Dr. Ciel(meaning Heaven, which represents light in a way). I just wonder if Cain has some kind of "light" to it.
Can someone check to see if I am correct? And I put this hear because it mainly has to do with Ciel and her birdy named friends.
Edit: I just checked, Ciel does mean Heaven. It also means sky, pretty much the same thing I guess. So my theory is correct.
Edit 2: after some thought, I think this should be moved to All MM series forum

Strange, and the names do look like they have a certain relevance:
Weil
Ceil
Cervou
Elpizo
Comeon, Elpizo definitely has to be a bad mexican name, or a couple of mexican words smushed together. El Pizo!!

Well, LunaZeroX, actually, Dr. Weil is called Dr. Vile in the Japanese version, though I think their is very little connection.

First of all: IT'S NOT DR. HIKIRA, IT'S DR. HIKARI WHICH MEANS SOMETHING ELSE!!!, BUT HIS FATHER, DR. TADASHI TRANSLATES TO DR. RIGHT OR IN ENGLISH SCREW UP VERSION. DR. LIGHT!!! |
