Today in Japan was the release of the latest colored editions of the Cell Saga from the Dragon Ball manga, and in the back of them was some Q&A with Akira Toriyama and in there he revealed the names of the cyborg siblings.
Android 17's real name is Lapis, and Android 18's real name is Lazuli. Lapis and Lazuli. Lapis Lazuli.....*sighs*....god damn it Toriyama.....

Their names are 17 and 18. Let's leave it that way.

I think 16 was 16's name. 17 and 18 have "real" names because they were humans before Gero made them into cyborgs. |

17 and 18 were humans who Gero kidnapped and experimented on. 16 was always an inorganic being. 16 doesn't have a name. By the way: Here's what he based the names on. link |

At least it's not tube sock and boxer.
But really, it makes the rest of the series after she marries Krillin look pretty silly, since he never uses her real name. And this long after the show was made, it really won't stick.

In a series where people are named after undergarments and food we bitch for a harmless name like lapis or lazuli?

Basically. 18 is the only name she's ever known. |

I figured he'd use a pun name.
Anyone have visual confirmation of this?

Somethings are best left unknown. I've always wondered about Freeza and his origins, what is homeland was like, if he Cold and Cooler were the last of his race like Vegeta and Goku, but I think I'd rather that be left a mystery now.

Honestly, I prefer it to be a pun and all, versus if he said "Oh, it's Jeff and Kelly."
