Yasushi Yamaguchi

The father of Miles "Tails" Prower, Yasushi Yamaguchi (also known as Judy Totoya) created Miles Prower in an internal contest hosted by Sonic Team. He originally named the character Miles Prower, with the "Tails" name tacked on as the name. Yasushi Yamaguchi snuck in his name though, and "Tails" had become the nickname.
