I have a friend whose first experience of Les Miserables was in Japanese, and he couldn't quite figure out what JYaN BaRuJYaN (apologies for the horrible transliteration!) was meant to mean. Until it eventually came up in conversation and I was able to correct him, he was convinced that the protagonist was called Jumble John. It still makes me laugh. XD
