Ironically, Vegeta and Nappa sound like types of women's and men's shampoos, respectively

To be fair, Vegeta = vegetable and Nappa is a type of cabbage...

Napper = head (the thing you take a nap with). I didn't make the rules

Considering how Toriyama named a lot of his characters, looking to the shower stall for ideas would just be on-brand.

Vegeta is a name of a spice here, Try searching "Croatia Podravka Vegeta" and learn.

Was funny when I was in elementary school watching dbz.

Edit: Will just link it instead Croatian Vegeta

Nearly every DragonBall character is named after food, actually. Like, a huge majority of them are.

Depends on the language, for example in croatia vegeta is the only one.
