Sanjis mother is named sora - sky, Zoros mother is named Terra = Earth. Both died of illness.
-I think the naming sense might hint to luffys mother's name if she ever becomes important
And Jimbei is the First Son of the Sea
Luffy is sun god so they are 4 elements
Son of the sea, Son of the sky, Sob of the earth, and the SON(Sun) god, they ain't in bros league, do you see Big Mom grouped with the Sweet Commanders, or Kaido grouped with King, Queen, and Jack?
Also I know this kinda reads as aggressive but I ain't mean it like that, I mean it in a nature documentary on at 2 am way.
Nami means waves
SOB of the earth. lol as a Sanji fan, I approve this typo.
Son of a ...
Terra (earth). Sora (wind/air). Imu (umi/sea). ███████.
Long ago, the elemental gods lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Imu attacked. Only the Joy Boy, reincarnation of Sun God Nika, could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years passed and the Son of Terra (Zoro) and the Son of Sora (Sanji) discovered the new Joy Boy; son of ███████ named Luffy. And although his haki skills are great, he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone. But I believe Luffy can save the world!
If they fuse together do they become the Avatar or Captain Planet?
Pluton, Uranus, and Poseidon?
Luffy has the three modern weapons to destroy the three ancient weapons. (Sorry, Shirahoshi)
That only exists in the English version. In Japanese his epithet has nothing to do with being a “son”
That's an english only name, "Knight of the Sea" is his original name... The wiki explains this
"His epithet, Kaikyō, would normally translate into "Strait" or "Channel". However since the kanji for it is written as (海侠) and not (海峡), the kyō part (侠) of it comes from (任侠), an honorific used when addressing a high ranking yakuza member, thus making his epithet a Japanese pun. Because this honorific is used for addressing high ranking yakuza members, it does not have a literal English translation. The closest translations used of the epithet that can be interpreted into English are made up based on the pun's meaning. These include "Yakuza of the Sea" and "Knight of the Sea" among others. These however are not literal translations, but titles made to convey the idea behind the original Japanese term used. In the Viz Manga and FUNimation adaptations, his epithet is translated as "First Son of the Sea"."
Maybe his mom's name was Ocean? That would give Earth in latin, Sky in Japanese, and Ocean in English.
Being called son of the sea is enough.
I think you mean, Umi which means Sea in Japanese.
Umi = Imu = luffy mama confirmed
Imu = Umi reversed. Mom = Mom reversed. Imu = Mom.
When was Tera mentioned?
Ods drew Zoro's family tree in the SBS for Vol.105
Thanks!
Zoro boy is the last living direct descendant of the god of the sword
Thanks!
Kuina's father, Koushiro is still alive.
He's not a direct descendant, Kozaburo and Yasuie are from different branches, the only direct descendants left were Ushimaru and Zoro grandmother, his sister Furiko. As Ushimaru didn't had children the only left is Zoro.
Just sad that all this didn't got explained on the anime, i mean i understand not being on the manga, but i'm sure they could cut that 10min sumo hand slap on the anime to get space.
Luffy mom will be named aurora. Latin for dawn
Aurora is a good one ngl…
I’m still partial to “Celestia” so that Luffy’s parents together make
CELESTIA(L) DRAGON
She had the Will of the L
She… Loved, Labored, then Left.
Makes sense
Live, Laugh, Leave
Basically what Roger did.
She must be Yasopp's sister
A nice theory but Luffy’s mom is named Crocodile
Yep, Crocodile Aurora. It was his family name all along.
Croco D. Isle Aurora
could be
Or maybe venti, if dragon has wind related powers he’d marry someone named wind
She could be Sea or Water but in a different language than Japanese or Latin then.
Umi would be the name for sea.
Imu backwards
Imu is luffy’s mother confirmed
Since the “king of the world” reveal, always assumed imu’s body to be Luffy’s mother but with the opi opi no mi mind swap. What better personal justification for Dragon to oppose the WG than to lose his wife and have her body made a puppet to a devil.
This is a great theory however crocodile was never mind swapped just gender changed with ivankov
That's not how Japanese works. Imu is written イム where イ = I and ム = mu. So backwards in Japanese it would be ムイ(Mui). Not Umi.
The backwards version of Umi would be Miu.
But it is how romanji works.
Marina from Latin would be better. But since we already got Japanese (Sora) and Latin (Terra), I'd expect something else.
In spanish we got "mar" (sea) or agua (water)
Maria?
Mer is French for sea. Could totally see that one
The plot thickens
Monkey D. Luffy Top 3 Commanders:
Roronoa Zoro - Son of the Earth (Terra)
Vinsmoke Sanji - Son of the Sky (Sora)
Jimbei - First Son of the Sea
And Nami is wind
Ocean in Japanese is Umi, backwards is Imu. So it's pretty much confirmed that Crocodile is Luffy's mom.
I've been saying it for years.
Sadly it's wrong because that's not how Japanese works. Imu is written イム where イ = I and ム = mu. So backwards in Japanese it would be ムイ(Mui). Not Umi.
The backwards version of Umi would be Miu.
That's not how Japanese works. Imu is written イム where イ = I and ム = mu. So backwards in Japanese it would be ムイ(Mui). Not Umi.
The backwards version of Umi would be Miu.
Yea ik. The post was mainly a joke because I knew at some point someone would make a serious theory on it.
Umi means sea in Japanese, and mother in arabic 🤣
Extremely different pronunciations though.
And "Ummi" is probably a better romanization of the Arabic word for "my mother" due to the shaddah. Although romanization of Arabic is a complete mess with little to no consistency anyway.
I genuinely think the whole Tera=Earth thing is a misconception based on the translation.
Here are my reasons:
If Oda were aiming for a theme here, why use the literal word for sky in Japanese and a miswritten Latin word for earth? "Earth" in Latin is "terra" ( with 2 r), not tera. While Tera could be a version of the word that sounds more like a name in Japanese, I don't think he'd do that, if he was going for the sky-earth thing for Zoro and Sanji. Plus, while Sanji has some( althouth very little) sky-themed stuff like Skywalk, Zoro didn't really have an earth theme so far
I don't speak Japanese, so I'm not sure if "Tera" as the western alphabet version of the kanji looking similar to "terra" is not just a coincidence, because according to the one piece fandom wiki, the name follows the naming theme for Zoro's relatives to have something to do with gambling.
Here's the passage I refer to from Tera's page:
"Tera (寺) means "temple" in Japanese. Her name may be derived from terasen (寺銭), literally "temple money", a fee charged by a gambling house. This follows the gambling-themed names of Zoro's relatives."
If her name in kanji fits the gambling theme of Zoro's other relatives, that's imo far more likely than the earth thing.
Yeah, this is very much just grasping at straws to draw a stupid forced comparison.
In Kingdom Hearts, they spell “Terra” (meaning earth in Latin) as “Tera (テラ)”. It’s the same spelling as Zoro’s mom’s name.
The caveat is that the katakana could just as easily be romanized as Tela, Tera, or something else. But, Terra is 100% not off the table
Words can have multiple meanings.
If spelt the same way ye.
Red and read have 1 letter missing you gonna use the same argument?
When the language that was translated to has have drastically different system, yes
“Tera” as in the Japanese word for Temple is not the same as “Terra” the Latin word for earth. There is not deeper elemental connection between Zoro and Sanji’s moms.
Aqua is Luffy’s mom confirmed?!
They do have similar levels of intellect
Close enough, welcome back Aang and Toph!
But that’s not Terra, Sora in Japanese means sky but Zoro’s mom’s name in Japanese means temple not earth or anything like that
This is just fandom headcanon stuff
There’s an interesting literary phenomenon called “double meaning” that may surprise you.
And what might surprise you is what some refer to as a “reach” when a claim is made and it doesn’t have proper reasoning
The way “Sora” literally means sky, is the way “Tera” literally means temple.
Fair point, but I’d argue that the part that reaches isn’t whether it could mean “Earth” in addition to meaning temple, but instead—the notion that it has any foreshadowing or narrative significance.
They’re one in the same. This misnomer exists because people want to make a pattern where there is none.
Those darn pattern recognition skills we evolved getting in the way. ;)
Imagine if Luffy's mother is Umi = Sea, and dragon going full traitor was because Umi is Imu.
Probably something with liberation or freedom.
"mothers suffering from unnamed illness" is such a common trope in mangas/anime, it's borderline comedic
All I see is KH names. 🤣🤣
Luffy's mother will probably be named Amaterasu or something related to the sun
Based on the trend I'm noticing, will Luffy's mom be named Kairi or Aqua?
Jarvis, I'm running low on karma, repost the theory about Zoro and Sanji's moms names
Luffy's mum may be called Umi then, meaning Sea but obviously backwards for Imu
ok, im not one for theories but why have i not noticed that about Imu's name until now?
Soooo im not caught up with op since wano and wooahh, zoro mom was revealed???
Just her name, I believe
Luffy’s mother = Crocodile
Tera in this context doesn't mean the earth though...
It's a gambling reference, his family are named after gambling references
Potential name of luffys mother could be umi or another sea related word
Edit: ... Wait a minute... Umi (sea) ... Imu (umi backwards) hmmmmmmm.... Hmmm?!?!?!
So like… Sun? Taiyou..? Or maybe like… Katie? (Taiyou kei)
Potentially Asahi, Yuuhi?
Or maybe her name could mean Moon, Tsuki, since Luffy is the sun?
Monkey D. Umi
Jimbei is water and Nami is wind
UMI (SEA) = IMU = LUFFY’S MOTHER 😮
In a naming sense, Luffy's mother's name would be Umi.
Mom said it's my turn to post this!
Good lord just fucking look to see if this has been posted before.
People need reposts. Most new people aren't scrolling old posts on reddit.
tbh this is my first time seeing it. I thought it was just fan canon for a second.
Maybe her name could be Sol as in the Spanish word for Sun as she gave birth to the one that would eventually light up the world ….. I wish I could still smoke weed this would make make alotta sense
Luffys mother name is "kuki" (air) confirmed
And jimbe is the first son of the sea
Earth sky and sea
Take that
Whose name will be mizu?
Her name is Tera which means temple.
Luffy's mom name is Mizu.
Aurora D. Tritoma would be the full name of Luffy's mother.
no it isnt. oda said as much when he confirmed that luffy's mom is still alive in the sbs
What?
Sun God Nika = Fire
First son of the Sea = Water
Is not sora also the superhero of the marines?
And Oda’s same face syndrome is hitting again as well lol
So luffy’s mother related to earth and sky….mmm… Maybe sand storm? 🤣
It's not funny, and it doesn't hint at luffy's mother either.
Zoro is the son of the Earth, Sanji the son of the sky, Jinbe son of the sea and Luffy the sun god.
One Piece fans as always lacking reading comprehension.
Dragon needs to get his ass up from that desk and give us some lore
Indeed. We need to know how he met Crocodile.
But

Ok, real question, if someone become a man with ivankov fruit. Rub one out, then turn to woman and out those in. What happened?
Its not that deep bro. just meme.
but i guess everything has change except their mind. the real question is, what happened to pregnant woman's baby when the woman turn into a man
This is how rogue kept ace in utero for 20 months maybe
She was able to handle Roger's CoC, she was just built different.
Just watch Predestination.
Haha
The man The woman The villain The terrorist
all is one guy. you mean dragon xxx dragon woman version? 🤣 that sso...
I imagine it would be like having a child with your identical twin sister.
You can't have an identical twin sister as a man, because identical twins are clones of each other and can't be of different sexes.
clone
Super self-cest baby
what the fuck man?
Then Luffy would have the Down Down No Mi.
Oh we know. 👀
Dragon: "..." "...!!"
Oda:Perfect summary of your origin Dragon, thank you
You mean a… dragon lore?
"I miss my wife
TailsIva. I miss her a lot."We definitely need a Dragon flashback mini-arc, hopefully with Luffy mom lore.
...I better not leave this desk. If I do I'm FINISHED
