From the recorded profile

This is a translation of the source description. Dates, affiliations and plans refer to the source’s publication context, not a guarantee of current activity.

His name comes from “Banken,” combining BANK, the English translation of bank, with ken, the on-reading of the Japanese word for dog, and Tomi, meaning Toyama's “wealth.” Together with the Bank of Toyama, he supports everyone's dreams and guards customers' “wealth” as a watchdog.
