I've been doing some research ever since the Roses/Rogers Mistranslation and I'm currently reading JoJo 6251; they have the correct translations of each name. Unlike my previous assertion based off the way their katakana is spelled, this book does indeed have the official spelling of each name in English. So far, I already corrected it but, Straits is suppose to be Straizo: http://i.imgur.com/gpKeW.png

I believe we SHOULD use these spellings, as they are from an official source ( a JoJo artbook no less), and as such are more trustworthy than online Scanlations.

Oddly enough though, the Pillar Men arn't actually spelled the way the bands are. ACDC's name is actually Esidisi, Wham is Wamuu and Cars is Kars. Ex: http://i.imgur.com/zydF4.png

The whole "the name is based off a band name, so we should use the band name" logic doesn't really hold either for Part 1 and 2, since about 90% of the names were simply referencing the names, they wern't the exact names, EX. Zeppeli, not Zeppelin. (aside from the badly translated scanlations). Otherwise, I'm thinking we should fix them to stay accurate.

Few other errors:
 * It's Rudol von Stroheim, not Rudolf


 * It's Muhammad in both Japanese and English, not Mohammed.


 * Doesn't really matter, but they spell out Death Thirteen, not Death 13.


 * It's Anguro kataguri, not Angelo.


 * http://i.imgur.com/F4kaP.png Mushikui is Bug Eat's name. It is a translation, but it's a Japanese word, so it may be more appropriate to keep it Japanese.

THose are the only errors I found.
