  "What about Malboro?"  "oh it sounds ok as Marlboro anyway, so we can use that"

Go ahead and change it, but people probably won't even notice this one. Gamers already sometimes spell it as "Marlboro".

I and a translator have had a big laugh today, after finally sussing what Gighee is.  We did mention it before, but now we know for SURE.

Gighee is Ziggy, named after the Bowie persona "Ziggy Stardust".  The katakana is a direct translation to it.

It is completely modelled after him:

It even has a guitar as a tail! 
is glam rocked
And has some of Bowies trade mark make up including:

It also has a move "Stardust Ray"

I am a big fan of Bowie, seems Nomura is too

Wow. That is cool, I didn't even know that. Nice man.
