Crim is fine. It doesn't cause confusion imo and more closely matched the "Cream" pun you guys want. Now "Kachess" is another story entirely. Either way, I will give a pass on removing the crime trivia as extraneous for Kachess' name.

Since we were on the topic, I decided to take another crack at any similar names to "Kachess" (other than "car chase"). While no exact name results popped up on a preliminary google search for カーチェス (Kaachesu).

But, カーチス (Kaachisu) did come up as the name for Curtis/Curtiss. Now a variation of the name is in fact "Curtess" which would logically follow the added "e" pronunciation included in カーチェス.

So that's the best I could come up with for a real life name translation: "Curtess Crim".
