To be fair, it looks like a lot of the stranger name changes come from that word existing in the Arabic language with a different meaning.
For example, if you go to the Japanese WWE with Google Translate, Tensai becomes "Sugar beet", Hakushi becomes "Blank", and Hideo Itami becomes "Hideo scratch". Also, for a more hilarious example, Zeb Colter becomes "Wedding Party Colter"

Emma's name is so fitting that it should be her gimmick.

A more accurate thread title would have been "Google's translation of Arabic WWE site's transliteration of names". Doesn't kill the humor, though. This has to be one of the funniest threads ever.

These are like characters from a rip-off pirated video games. 'No, it's obviously not CM Punk, it's ICM Bank, a creation of our very own.' I was just thinking it feels like an unedited copy of Fire Pro.

Kane becoming Ken is the greatest thing that could happen at this point.

My favorite part? How disproportionately gigantic you made Ken's head.
