What does the word Naruto mean?

As enthusiast of the animation Naruto, we've all heard about the word Naruto, but do you know what Naruto truly means? The word Naruto is actually from a type of Japanese fish cake. The specific fish cake that Naruto is with is often seen with pink surroundings and designs that is seen as a simple spiral form.Believe it or not, it is often eaten alongside with soups and noodles. Yes, this will include the ramen that Naruto from the animation that he enjoys. If you examine the fishcake carefully, you would also notice that the head protector that Naruto wears looks very much the same as the food Naruto itself. So Kanoha is really revolving around the food Naruto and it's kinda interesting to see that these little facts actually ties in together to the centric part of the storyline somewhat.Besides Naruto being a traditional Japanese dish as fish cakes, Naruto is also an actual city in Japan located in Tokushima a bit leaning towards the southern part of Japan.  The city itself is quite small with a population of only 63,784 currently shown on their city's official website. The city of Naruto was founded in the March of 1947 so the city itself is still relatively new. One of the most interesting facts about the city is that it contains the first two of the 88 Shikoku Pilgrimage buddhist temples. Now what makes this fact stands out is the looks of the people from the temple and what they wear.Yes, those traditional Buddhist clothings that pilgrims wear are closely resembled to the ones that the Hokage's in Naruto animation wear starting from how they dress all the way to their hats.  So the next time t you watch Naruto episodes again, you'll know exactly where it's origin as well as where little things ties up together.
