My pair are currently estimated to arrive on Tuesday, help me select their names. I also have a poll running on the fediverse, so results here aren't binding.

Japanese: written 渡辺 'crossing' and 'boundary'
macchia f (plural macchie) stain, smear. spot, fleck. (figuratively) blot, speck, disgrace (I chose this because one of the characters he's based on the the phantom blot and he is a notable character in some of the topolino comics and I like the idea of an Italian American Yuu)
The reason I gave Yuu the surname Watanabe was because it slightly referenced the after life like the manga Yuus and also because the manga Yuus were Japanese so I went with that because back in the day when I didn't really have an idea for their backstory and overall character so I just went (idk, just do what the cannon is doing)

I am also VERY open to new suggestions! This might not be the last one of these that I do, but I'm hoping this will give me an idea that ends up being "the one."

Have a name that you can't find in a museum gift shop?
Is it spelled a little differently? Is it uncommon in countries/states/towns outside of your own? Are you named after an inanimate object or obscure fictional character?
Then submit your name to battle it out with other obscure names to see whose parents did them the dirtiest (bonus points if it's a chosen name and you did it to yourself 😉)
Rules
Feel free to submit whatever name you searched for in the gift shop (whether it was your first, middle, or nickname)
It doesn't have to be your own, but it does have to be a name that you have heard out in the wild (don't just make up names to participate)
If your name used to be more obscure but has since gained popularity, it will be allowed. Your trauma is still valid.
Don't be straight up mean about people's names. This is how they identify. Those participating are giving permission to laugh, not to bully.
Submissions will close in 2 weeks, May 21 at 7pm Pacific Time
Feel free to send any asks my way!
Inspiration taken from:
@jamesbracket @john-battle and from also having a name that can't be found on a license plate
Let's have some fun!!
