It works in Japanese since their language is phonetic.

The three letters that make up the name Mario for them are MA-RI-O. Rearrange that and you get O-RI-MA ... or, Olima, which can be easily extended into Olimaa, and the long aa sound is the way the Japanese approximate the -ar sound, in in my name, Carmine, it is Kaa-main.

Hence, it works.

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

... shame his name is Olimar, not Omari.

Ahh, my bad!
I didn't double check before I posted.
