Text limits. None of the playable characters have more than five letters in their names.

They do call him Chrono (in English characters) in some Japanese material, apparently. The game title and the character name are also the same in katakana. So...text limits.

I was hallucinating when I saw this topic and thought that the Chrono Trigger was real... well, not 'real' real, but a part of our world's extant mythology; possibly Hinduism.

The title is Chrono Trigger, they should've called him Trigger.

Why isn't he named Jim? Crono isn't a real name.

Lucca's a real name.

Frog's real name is Glenn, and that's a real name.
