It's believed that Pac-Man's design came from a pizza with a slice removed. According to the game's designer, Toru Iwatani, this is only half true. The other half of the design comes from the Japanese character for mouth, kuchi (口), which he rounded out to make it into a featureless ball. An idea to give him eyes was brought up during development, but was dropped to make sure Pac-Man wasn't over complicated.
