What's in a Name? In Apolo's case, quite a bit. The 'Ap' in his first name means "to lead". The 'lo' means "away". The 'o' in the center connects the two, so the his name means "to lead away from". His father Yuki, gave his son this name in order to remind him to stay on the right track. So far, it seems the name has done it's job!
