I have only just picked up reading the Light novels, so pardon my lack of information around the series. However, from what I have read/comprehend, Sacred Language in the Underworld is basically English in the real world.

According to description on the wiki for Sacred Tounge, it "is not considered as having any special meaning by the average resident" and that "the Axiom Church restricted the knowledge on the meaning behind the vocabulary of the Sacred Tongue". This shows that pretty much all the Underworld citizens do not understand English as a language is that right?

Following that train of thought, why do majority of the characters within the series have English names? (Eugeo, Alice, etc.) If their common tongue is Japanese, shouldn't all their names be in Japanese instead?
