N's real name would be another pop culture reference
With so many names are either referring to pop culture reference (Elsa to Frozen, Claire to Resident Evil) or shoutout to something else (Alex to Alexander the Great, Lily to the Yuri genre) this seems likely.
  • Gordo N, referring to Gordon Ramsay.
  • He seems to be part Asian if his grandmother's flashback is any indication. Maybe Naruto or Nobita? He is referencing Doraemon in earlier pages.
  • Recent chapter hint it was an unusual name that was for male in Europe, but probably sounded feminine in other place. Probably something like Nicole, Niki, Noel, etc.
  • Anne. It could be male in some places like Netherlands and France, also as Frozen Shout-Out, and would explain why N hated called by a girly name.

N's parents actually wanted a girl...
But they ended up with a boy. They insisted giving him a 'feminine' sounding names, though.
  • Also explained why his mother constantly disappointed in him.
