Origin
Pirates Orojya is based on the mythical creature, Yamata no Orochi. Yamata no Orochi ( 八岐の大蛇), or simply Orochi, was a Japanese dragon told in Izumo mythology of the Shinto religion, which was slain by Susanoo, the Shinto God of the Sea and Storm. Orochi had 8 heads and 8 tails and as such Yamata no Orochi literally meant "8-branched giant snake". Pirates Orojya references Yamata no Orochi by its motif, the eight snake-heads on the Orojya Chrome Wheel, as well as the large, Orojya face on the Chrome Wheel.

Name origin
Pirates refers to the infamous bandits that commit piracy. As of which, is the act of robbery or criminal violence at sea. The name is fitting with Orojya and the Bey's owner, Eight Unabara because Susanoo was the God of Sea, who slayed Orojya, and Eito has an elemental likening to water; while Unabara (海原) is Japanese for the "sea".
