Oh, for those of you who don't know the ending -Maru is an older form of naming a male in Japan, although it's still used for ships.  The usage is for naming a boy after an noun, like in the case of our not so favourite Kitsune troublemaker, Hitomaru.<br/><br/>The first half is Hito which stands for 'Man' or 'Bandit' (Not saying which he uses), but because of the way it used to work, -maru is added to denote that it's his name.
