Characters
For more details on this topic, see List of Digimon Adventure characters.The English version of Digimon Adventure was somewhat unique at the time it was dubbed. Most anime dubbed in the 1990s changed the names of characters and locales for the sake of localization. In Digimon, however, most names of the DigiDestined remained unchanged or were shortened to Americanized nicknames, and almost all name references to the locations in Japan visited during the series were retained. Some Digimon names were modified into English equivalents, and in rare cases to Japanese equivalents.
The eight DigiDestined children are listed first, followed by their Digimon partners.

“Do you set down your name in the scroll of youth, that are written down old with all the characters of age?”
