It might interest you to know that according to the synopses provided by Mushi Pro. for translation and dubbing by Fred Ladd and Co. back in the
60s, her name was transcribed as "Oran." Hige Oyaji is alternately referred to as "Bearded Grandpa" as well as "Daddy Walrus". I don't recall seeing him being referred to as "Daddy Moustache", but he might have been. I'll have to pull out my early edition copies of the "Astro Boy Episode Guide" from The Right Stuf Inc. as the early editions had the original names provided by Mushi Pro. Hige Oyaji became known as "Mr. Pompous" only after Fred Ladd gave him that name which Dr. Tezuka always found amusing.
The above material must have used information for the series before Atlas became a synthesis of Cobalt (as Astro Boy's brother) and the Blue Knight (characteristics which the adult Atlas exhibited). Of course in Japan where Atlas was already part of the nine-part serial within a series, "Atom Vs. Atlas" Cobalt and the Blue Knight were not in evidence.--Astrobudddy
