his real name is zoro. in the japanese versions
but they changed it in dubbed episodes because they feared legal action from the people who used zoro in the old movies (the masked guy who fought with 1 sword and stuff).

zo ro both japanese letters.
L isnt even a japanese letter.
so there is a reason they changed it from zoro to zolo

The Japanese don't have letters, ha! They use character symbols to stand for sounds, words, and syllables.
