The Koopa Troopa's Japanese name,「ノコノコ」(''Nokonoko''), is a Japanese term meaning "to walk unconcernedly", describing the green-shelled Koopa Troopas' behavior. The English name comes from [[Bowser]]'s Japanese name,「クッパ」(''Kuppa''), which is itself derived from the Korean dish of the same name,<ref>http://themushroomkingdom.net/mariosan.shtml</ref> while "Troopa" is a corruption of "trooper", seemingly to keep the reference to forward marching from the Japanese name intact. | The Koopa Troopa's Japanese name,「ノコノコ」(''Nokonoko''), is a Japanese term meaning "to walk unconcernedly", describing the green-shelled Koopa Troopas' behavior.
