Mario was originally a carpenter, not a plumber as he became later with the introduction of Mario Bros. The word "donkey", in Donkey Kong, is a play on the Japanese word for "stupid". Pauline is the name of Mario's girlfriend in Donkey Kong. In the Japanese version, her name is Lady, but she got her name changed when Nintendo released the Famicom version.

Now that we're older and have the capacity to ponder weightier issues than we did back then, it's time to consider: Why was the game named "Donkey Kong"? The "Kong" part is obvious (giant ape = King Kong), but whence comes the "donkey"? We find that there are several competing alternatives to choose from, starting with the mistranslation theory:

[Miyamoto] consulted a Japanese-English dictionary and found "donkey" listed as an English equivalent to the Japanese word for stupid or goofy. He decided that Kong would be a good name for the gorilla, so he called the game Donkey Kong.

These explanations aren't inherently implausible either (although they're probably a bit garbled, as it would be a bit unusual to find "donkey" listed as a synonym for "stupid" or "goofy," as the former is a noun and the latter are adjectives), although some have dismissed them as face-saving tales concocted after the fact to cover up an embarrassing mistake. Nintendo was sued by MCA for infringing on "King Kong," but they don't seem to have chosen the name "Donkey Kong" with the intent of avoiding copyright complications. (Miyamoto's himself said during the court trial that "King Kong" was considered a generic term in Japan for any large, scary ape, hence his use of "Kong.")

The bottom line is that no evidence backs up any of the explanations that the name "Donkey Kong" came about because of a misread fax, mispronunciation, or mistranslation. Shigeru Miyamoto, the game's inventor and the one person who unquestionably knows the origins of the name he chose, has repeatedly affirmed that he used the word "donkey" to convey a sense of stubbornness and the name "Kong" to invoke the image of a gorilla.

The name Donkey Kong is not Japanese, as it is widely believed. Instead, it is a combination of two words: The first word is supposed to stand for something that is hard to deal with: A mule, or donkey. The second word stems from King Kong. Hence, Donkey Kong. ff782bc1db
