Ned's tag is derived from his initials: N icholas E ugene D ovel.
Ned is sometimes humorously referred to as "Black Nairo" due to him and Nairo sharing a somewhat similar appearance. Interestingly, the joke was further extended by the fact that Ned uses the black colour alternate costume of Zero Suit Samus in tournaments.
