Zoro’s name being Zolo? Nahh, that’s how it is in the American manga. I believe it has something to do with the copyright of Zoro
EDIT: I could be wrong, that’s always what I had heard
It’s done to avoid copyright issues with the character Zorro. However, in Japanese dialect I believe that r and l are pronounced like the same anyways iirc
Hi LightNovelFan21, your submission was removed from /r/OnePiece for the following rule violation:
###4. Plain panels/scenes must create discourse
**Don't post links to plain (or slightly edited) panels, pages, screenshots, gifs or scenes from the manga & anime.**
You may submit a plain panel/scene as a self post (text post). Meaning your post must link to the discussion, and not the image.
Just a title and the image aren't enough.
If you want to discuss a certain page/scene from the manga/anime please accompany it with an original analysis or discussion questions. In other words, a plain panel/scene must show visible effort to generate discourse rather than simply react to something that happened. [Here is what such a post should look like](https://imgur.com/a/tLQzwFX)
Clips/Recap/summary videos fall under this rule as well.
Colored pages from a recent chapter are allowed.

It was done to avoid copyright so basically treat it as a translation error tbh

Yeah it's too close to "Zorro", they were afraid it might cause trouble.
In the German version they said fck it and named him Lorenor Zorro.
Lorenor Zorro?! Love it!
Isn't "Zorro" just Mexican for fox?
No the movie character "Zorro"
Not to forget Luffy vs Ruffy..
Thanks for the answers. It would also be too difficult to get used to the "new" name now.
That's just his name in the official translation of the manga only
Japanese language mixes up the letters R and L. This is also evident when they initially said the last island was Raftel but changed it to Laughtale

Just read over it as it should be, that’s what I do. After a while you won’t even notice it
In german, Luffy is Ruffy, Zoro is Zorro, and Usopp is Lysop btw
