Clay or Kurei?
Is Bon Clay his real name? Plumber 00:39, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't think it is, but I have no proof.Blue Leg 01:55, 27 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Oda supplied it as Kurei, which is the name of a holiday. Its on his wanted poster.  Transaltors always translate to "Clay" which is simulair to what Kurei sounds like (And I guess the romanisation would come out like that too).  I think Kurei is some festival to do with the dead or something, used to know, don't know anymore.  --One-Winged Hawk 06:20, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Oh... I was going to move it to Bon Kurei/Clay if that was his name. Since it was on his wanted poster, it probably is... but I don't know whether to move it to Bon Kurei or Bon Clay. I'm leaning a bit towards Bon Clay since translators and both dubs and Viz use that. But I want others' opinions first. Plumber 08:16, 27 July 2008 (UTC)


 * "In Oda we trust!".


 * Oda wrote the series, not the fansubs or Viz. ;-) --One-Winged Hawk 08:27, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

 * You slightly misuderstood me there... "Mr. 2" is part of his name, I was confirming Kurei over Clay. Its not important, we all make mistakes (done this sort of thing myself a few times). --One-Winged Hawk 08:40, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

however, one could also say its a play on words, the name Bon clay is french (the character also seems to be french, he counts in french , even in the japanese version), but when said in japanese it sounds like kurei wich is the name of a holiday.unsigned statement by 99.250.9.151


 * That is also a possiblity. Another question to ask on top if what the romanization of "Bon Clay" is. --One-Winged Hawk 13:13, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
