"So Misa, what is L's name?"
"Well Light-kun his name is Eru Rarietu. I think."
"What do you mean you think?! This is of the upmost importance. So figure it out now."
"Well, that's what my eyes read in katakana. But he didn't have any kanji, and I'm not sure that the Romanji should be."
"Well, it becomes useful in these circumstances to think critically. So try to figure it out. Misa."
"Alright. Light-kun, anything for you. I think that it might be spelled in Romanji as L Laliet. Or maybe L Lawleet. Or L Laleet. Or L Lawliet."
"... This is you figuring it out?"
"Well I'm trying. But my English is pretty rusty. Why don't you try this light-kun?"
"Fine. Since you can't... It's obviously, Law, um, Lawlie... Lawliette... Loliet? ... Shut up Ryuk."
"Bwahaha... Silly little Light-o. You know his name, but can't figure out how to spell it. Such a pity..."
"Fuck it. I'll just write out all the possible permutations then."
"Silly Light-o, that's against the rules."
"... Gah!"
