The English translation of the game involves a large number of name changes to many characters as well as stand names for those that have stands, all to avoid any potential lawsuits with musicians/bands. Some examples are the character "Vanilla Ice" being changed to "Cool Ice", Giorno's stand "Gold Experience" was renamed to "Golden Wind" and the character "Jean Pierre Polnareff" was changed to "Jean Pierre Eiffel."

The original Japanese voice acting will still say the original names, despite the subtitle changes.
