I know it’s his real name, but Doug Bowser sounds like some fake shit the real Bowser would use to disguise his identity.

I really hope he was the best candidate when Nintendo were choosing a new NOA president (afiak, he's been doing a good job), but I feel his last name definitely made him stand out from the other candidates.

Maria Mario, Luigi Mansion, Supersmash Bros: Melee, Sam Aran, and Zelda Williams all were very upset.

Upset, but not surprised. Bowser has been trying to take over the kingdom for decades.

I'm sure you've heard of this phenomenon but I'll mention it anyways:
