    I think the idea there is that Masaki is a fairly common, not very unique Japanese male name.

    So, Bill is a fairly common, not very unique male name in English.

    In French and Spanish, Bill is Sam, in German he’s Lennart, in Italian, Alessio.

    I think the idea was ‘just some normal guy’.

    EDIT:

    Damnit.

    I got got. Fucking LLM hallucinated those names.

    I’m going with bulbapedia as a more authoritative source than your local, friendly, delusional autocomplete machine.
