Wierd names?

[Nirokuro]

In my opinion the manhwa that story events happen in china or korea have weird nickname, i am not talking about a person name as every culture has thier own names that might seem to others i am talking about why giving a nickname "holy white dragon doctor" or "heavenly demon emperor" it can even go weirder for moves and skills like "yellow emperor sword technique: sky rise dragon lying, sleeping dragon's Ascension"
The question is i want to know why writers choose suck names

I don't read Chinese and Korean novels because I am a weep weeb and only read Japanese Light Novels. I don't know about Korean; however, since Kanji and Chinese characters have many things in common, I can guess why. The names probably sounded and read fine in the original language, but sucked when translated into English.

For example: I'd guess that, if something like "holy white dragon doctor" was in Japanese, it would be 聖白竜医師(sei.haku.ryuu.i.shi). It sounded cooler and looked cooler than English, right?

Of course, the basis for those name would still be Chyuunibyou lol

They want it to sound BIG and POWERFUL, which is an obsession for the Chinese in particular from my experience, and maybe it sounds alright in the original language, but the actual meaning/translation is... Chuunibyou.
