Well, I've had PSU online for a week now, I'm level 21, (names Viper, hit me up foo hehe) and I love the game. It's like the wonders of PSO all over again..except for one thing. Monster names.
The new names of all these baddys have gone from simple and easy to discuss with friends (Red Slime, Volt Opt, De Rol Le) to a mouthful of gibberish (Goushin, Adahna Degahna, Kamatouzu) just to name a few.
Anyone else missing just saying "Hey wanna go do a Volt run" instead of "Hey wanna go kill that big @$$ tank thing..uh...Adhagua Hoobawhatsit?" They even felt the need to change dragon to de ragan, come on! Cut me some slack here Sega, I only have so much memory capacity for obtuse names and only so much time to try to convey my ideas through a keyboard while whooping mutated koltova butt with daggers.
Anyone else annoyed a little by it? Though overall, PSU is an amazing game...even when we have only scratched the surface.

I'm fairly sure now having experienced the Goushin myself that they will become a household name around PSU that will be easy to discuss ;p. Adahna isn't too bad of a name to remember if you leave out the sirname. For the other enemies with more complex names, I suppose it would be better to recognize them by thier signature nasty attacks.

well, I haven't made it far enough for such complicated names, I just give them a short name, like Dragon instead of De Ragan, or "lets do relics" instead of "lets kill the strateria". good thing I got a keyboard, I have no idea how I would get around w/o it.

I often just simplyfy it by saying:
" lets kill draggy "
" lets kill flying trash can "
" Lets kill the tall man "

I heard someone once refer to adahna degahna as:
" is this the one with the boss anna banana? "
cause they couldn't remember the name, lol

XD eh constant use will get you to remember them easily...I mean think of how many Zelda/Mario monster names you remember despite how stupid they seemed at first

ya, thats kinda what I do too. the names are hard to remember, so I'm not suprised that some people would misspell them.

well, for the mario names, I dont' think the names were hard to remember, I mean, goomba, koopa, bob-omb, bullet bill, whats so hard to remember about that? psu enemies have names that are hard to pronounce the first time someone sees it.

LOL! Wasn't expecting that one. xD
If you pay attention and read the nametags, it's not that hard to remember at least the gist of the name. Goshin, Kamatozu, Adahna Degahna, De Ragan, etc.

Hehe, I'll probably call it that from now on...can't help myself.

Meh, as the others said, you'll get used to them.
I hope I will...
