He writes his name as "George NAKATA" in alphabet. This is known well in Japan, as you can find in Seiyuu Database. Isn't this expression common outside Japan? Similar cases are Rica FUKAMI versus Rika FUKAMI, and Rica MATSUMOTO versus Rika MATSUMOTO. --KAWASAKI Hiroyuki 03:33, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

I'd like a more official source for that. Evan1975 16:56, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

Requested move (2009)

The result of the move request was moved to Jōji Nakata. Aervanath (talk) 15:29, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

This page should be moved to Jōji Nakata per the Manual of Style (Japan-related articles). Any opinions? Cat's Tuxedo 16:44, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

I was bold and moved it because the WP:MOS-JA indicates it should be were I moved it. ···日本穣^{? · Talk to Nihonjoe} 06:40, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

I'd say go ahead, as it shouldn't be George, but instead "Joji" or "Jouji"--the first name isn't Japanese at all, so I would say that Jouji (Joji) would be more formal in this case. 71.57.74.109 (talk) 23:57, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Then again, the name is spelled "George" in Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus...

I, for one, think it would be a lot more convenient to simply use the Hepburn romanization in all cases... but then we'd end up with Masamune Shirō or Reiji Matsumoto... 88.161.129.43 (talk) 23:37, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Why was the page moved to George Nakata without discussion? --Chininazu12 05:22, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

• I've checked several sources, including the Japanese Wikipedia and the site of the company he works for, but none of them mention the name "George". I suggest we move this article to Jōji Nakata, the romanisation of his name 中田譲治.—Preceding unsigned comment added by JadziaLover (talk • contribs)

• Support - unless any reliable sources can be provided to support the unconventional "George" name. --DAJF (talk) 13:03, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
• Support. Like I said earlier, it was moved without proper discussion. --kazu (talk) 14:07, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
• Strong Support as per the above reasonings. Greg Jones II 13:54, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Jōji Nakata → Jouji Nakata – per MOS:JAPAN, renaming to un-macron'ed common name as referred to by the news articles and press releases for when he visited anime conventions in North America. – AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:45, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

Hitoshi?

I've seen various websites (some wikis, Crunchyroll, VNDB, and others), list his birth name as Hitoshi, but nothing about this from more reliable sources, or on his agency page. This page, even, used to be called Hitoshi Nakata, like 10 years ago. Does anyone else know anything about this? I also think it might be worth it to note that he has gone by George Nakata in the past, even if not anymore. Promestein (talk) 04:16, 20 September 2018 (UTC)

This fansite lists his birth name as Hitoshi and notes that he went by George. It also has extensive lists of work he's done, but I dunno if it'd be considered a reliable source. Promestein (talk) 04:43, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
