I meant by more on lines of how he was thinking himself. Also, remember that Japan views English words differently than the rest of the world and often have odd phrases and words placed together that they even wear on public TV without knowing better. Thus TouchMe might not sound so bad to them.

Also, TouchMe is written as such, thus no translating. Momonga the same, being a name, it should be written as so (instead of the translation of Flying Squirrel), but since the main readers being Japanese, they can read and recognize it as so, including Momonga himself, who is Japanese, thus deciding that maybe he should change his name as "Flying Squirrel" to himself may not sound as appropriate for an Overlord/Leader's name. Thus another reason to take up the Ainz name (other than of course the specific reasons listed in the book, which I'll not go over again). Again, this is just a theory and has no more basis than that.

On TouchMe sounding retarded, that's just because we speak the language. EVERY country uses words from other languages incorrectly because it "sounds cool". It's done in the US and Europe, just as much as Japan. Hence, this is why you see random English in J-Pop and J-Rock songs that make absolutly no sense. So in Japan, while again you think it's rediculous, may sound really cool to them.
