Larry Ellison changed the name of his yacht: what is the reason?

American billionaire and one of the founders of Oracle, Larry Ellison, attracted public attention once again by changing the name of his superyacht. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

Initially, the yacht was named Izanami, after a goddess in Japanese mythology. However, opinions spread on the internet that when this name is read backwards or reflected in a mirror, it could be interpreted as "I'm a Nazi."

Due to this situation, Ellison changed the yacht's name to Ronin. The word Ronin in Japanese culture refers to a samurai who has lost his master and is wandering.

This name was chosen as a neutral and historical term instead of the previous uncomfortable interpretation. Additionally, various reports have circulated about Larry Ellison's close ties with Israel and its Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Some sources emphasize that Ellison has a close friendship with Netanyahu. Furthermore, there is information that he has supported various Jewish and Israeli initiatives.
