Japanese and Korean name etymology

Now this page is unlocked... I propose that the ブル and 불 in their Japanese and Korean names (respectively) mean "bull", as in the animal. Like it's tough-as-a-bull.

The only other possibilities include:

  • 不 = ぶ bu, 불 bul: not, un-
...but 不 usually belongs in the beginning of words.

...that is unless ブル/불 is just a corruption of リブレ/리브레, but... aw, forget it. I'm putting too much thought into this. -- Nick15 (talk) 17:06, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
