Description
How to read TeenTitans and Titans' names in Japanese, katakana and romaji? It was a question from , and I thought some of others might have the same quetsion. So here is a help for those people.
We usually write the words that come from abroad in katakana. And oh, I've never known how to write 'teen' in romaji! lol. Well, we hardly use romaji stuffs in daily lifes.
Supplementation:
Starfire can be called as 'sutaafaia', pronounced more shortly. The way in the pic are official name of her in Japanese, but personally I think it's cooler than official one. And many TT fans in Japan call her so, too.

Slades name in Japanese is "Sure I do"? Boy in Japanese is shonen so Beast Boys name should be (Japanese name for animal) Shonen. I used to know what "star" is in Japanese was but I don't think it was that.

Just letting you know, she technically didn't translate the names. She transliterated them. It's the pretty much same thing as if I were to say "siesta" or "coup de'tat". In all likelyhood, how she put them up here is how they say them in the Japanese version of the show.
animal=doubutsu
boy=shounen
star=hoshi
fire=hi
Terra=earth=chi(Terra is Latin for earth[ground, not the planet, I think]. This is also transliterated.)
