List of Namesakes
There is a major reoccurring theme that is highly prevalent throughout the entirety of the Little Tail Bronx series. Most characters that CyberConnect2 creates are often named after some type of food.
Starting with Solatorobo: Red the Hunter, most characters in the series are often named after French cuisine due to the setting of the series (Shepherd Republic/Free Lands of Gasco) formerly being Old World France.
