Dragon Ball characters are mostly named after puns and common objects to add a humorous touch! For example, Saiyans are named after vegetables (Vegeta = vegetable, Kakarot = carrot) and the Brief family after underwear (Bulma = bloomers).

Akira Toriyama loves puns! Many characters have names inspired by food, clothing, or other everyday items. For instance, Piccolo is named after a musical instrument, and Krillin's original name (Kuririn) comes from chestnuts.

A hot take: Dragon Ball names are just random and fun. Seriously, Goku's Saiyan name is Kakarot鈥攍ike 'carrot.' Toriyama was just having a good time!
