That has been discussed in the past. Matt and Tony have said that they don't think of any of their characters as part of the real world (with the exception of themselves of course), but as part of the Flipverse. So there are people from Tastyville, Burgerburgh, Tacodale, etc. There is no Japan, there is no Germany, so to speak (although the holidays and celebrations are totally influenced by real world cultural celebrations.

So, no while they "look" to be Japanese, and their names are Japanese sounding, there will be trying to characterize each character by a nationality. All of it would be considered fan fiction/fanon, and is not allowed on this site.

I can deal with etymology as long as it doesn't steer to far out of control.
