Toriyama only spelled it that way because his understanding of English was poor.

intentional corruption of english words is extremely common

again, this goes back to the whole Yoshi/Yossy thing

there are number of reasons why Toriyama may have chosen "Bulma" for the English spelling

This is also why context is hugely important when doing translations and localizations

it's easy to look at "Buruma" by itself and go "okay, we can render that as Bulma" without looking at the bigger picture as to why she's called that

Yoshi has been officially romanized as Yoshi in most cases, Yossy does reflect the actual pronunciation better though in the case of the double s (though you still need to say sy like shii).

it's still interesting to see why some spellings are used while others aren't

I learned about the whole Yoshi/Yossy issue from this article:
https://legendsoflocalization.com/qa-why-is-yoshi-sometimes-called-yossy/
https://legendsoflocalization.com/yossy-image-gallery/

if you listen to how he says it in the game it is a bit more like "yos-shee" and not "yo-shee"

His name also derives from kuri, a chestnut. In universe it is spelled Kulilin which isn't surprising because Japanese often don't differentiate between l and r for romanization. I think a lot of people here are missing the point of the original post. In universe, within Dragon Ball itself, her name is spelled Bloomers, and that's also the origin of the name. People are hung up on phonetics and missing the point. Japanese people say it like Buruma, but that doesn't mean that's how her name is spelled in universe.

That's a good point, but sometimes the "in-universe" spelling isn't very accurate or consistent either, like Koopa being "Kuppa" in some instances, or Yoshi being "Yossy"

although I guess those are lesser examples since they're pronounced the same either way...

Is it? I thought that the "u" is sort of quiet/cut short, but still pronounced.

I guess it's more like "rink-huh" with the "huh" being more of an exhale than a vocalization

Did you know that Japanese doesn't really have a "V" sound? They have something kind of between a "b" and a p" though. So, things like "Sailor Venus" sound like... well, a bit phallic, honestly.

L/R, B/V and TH/S are common issues when it comes to translating Japanese (see also: Aeris/Aerith)
