Just a reminder, we're all supposed to be providing the original Japanese to go off of for these proposals--it's about reflecting the culture that it's intended to be a part of, yes, but it's also supposed to be about how something can be more accurately translated in terms of how loanwords and the language works.

For example, I'm all for changing Netsuma to something less Japanese, but does Nezma accurately reflect how it's written? Furthermore, is there enough reason to think that they're the Evillious equivalent to the Roma people, rather than just making the change for arbitrary personal aesthetic?

Please keep these things in mind, not to squash your enthusiasm. But if we're going to be making changes that may at times involve a bit of effort switching over the spellings, there should be a more solid case behind them.
