As you can see from the video, some of these names are so obscure even local Japanese people don’t know what they mean, looking at you Kagawa “Olive Guyners”.

I did some research of my own (on Japanese Wikipedia) and this is what I found:

“The team’s name comes from a combination of Kagawa Prefecture’s official tree (the olive tree) and the word for “strong” in Saluki-Ben (a local dialect of Japanese), Gaina. The word gaina is then morphed to look English-ish as “Guyner.”

Whoa. That’s Weird.
