So...I have to admit,it rather bugs me to have fanon names being taken as official on this character sheet.

Because Lupin III's first name being "Arsène" is never established in the series (outside of some Funimation dubs), aside from a profile in Part 5 that speculates that it's the case. It's ASSUMED he's "Arsène Lupin III", but officially, Lupin III has no first name (I'm guessing because Monkey Punch didn't know how generational suffixes work in Western naming).

Likewise, in Japanese, the samurai is often referred to as "the 13th-generation Goemon Ishikawa", but "XIII" isn't actually part of his name, because I don't believe Japanese names have generational suffixes. Officially, he's just "Goemon Ishikawa".
