Tips

In mainland cinemas the 2017 film Logan was not called 罗根 at all: it opened as 金刚狼3, 'Wolverine 3'. Taiwan kept the name as 羅根.

memory

Both characters carry their literal meanings in the background - 罗 'net' and 根 'root' - but here they're chosen purely for sound. Treat 罗根 as a phonetic shell, not a meaningful compound.
