Recently, it's been revealed that the god of destruction from universe 9, the
dwarf-like one is named Sidra which comes from the Spanish name for cider. My
question is: are there any other characters in the Dragon Ball universe with a
Spanish name?

Which character names come from Spanish words?


The fan wiki for Dragon Ball has a page where they've [compiled a
list](http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Origins_of_character_names) of origins
for character names in the Dragon Ball universe.

This page lists three with connections to Spanish.

  * Pan 

> Pan means "bread" in both Spanish and Japanese, which may continue the food
> theme of Gohan's family.

  * Chi Chi 

> Japanese for "milk" (which also refers to breasts by extension and are a
> slang term for breasts in Latino Spanish). Named like this because her
> father is the Ox-King.

  * Salza 

> The English verbal translation is a pun on the Spanish sauce "salsa".

I'm doubtful the first two were intentional, since the Japanese word for bread
being the same as the Spanish word is merely a coincidence, and Chi Chi being
a slang for breasts also seems very coincidental.
