I dont get it. Why is he called Kaito Kid? If I'm not mistaken, someone once said his name is Kaito Kuroba, right? So the Kaito makes sense, but why KID? He seems to be atleast a teen if not a young adult...
Maybe it relates to his father? Same person said that his father was the first Kaito and was killed by the black organization. But I dont know Kaito's whole story. I've only seen Kaito's first anime appearance and movie 3. I have no access to Magic Kaito manga. Can someone explain Kaito's backstory to me? Is it explained in the Conan manga? I'm at episode 80 now, so unless its explained in like the next 20 episodes or less, feel free to spoil me about it.

Kaito and Kaitou are different. Kaitou means phantom theif and Kaito is just his name. and the KID came out of the 1412

But then what did the 1412 come out of? I think the 1412 came out of Kid, not vis versa.
So his name is Kaito, but his title is Kaitou Kid?

Ok, where did the 1412 come from? And didnt Nakamori say that calling him Kaitou 1412 is wrong in the Conan Kaitou special? Did Kaito himself ever express an opinion of 1412 vs Kid?
Thanks for the link though. Now, what about his backstory?

It isnt condensed somewhere into a more readable text form? I mean, if this is all there is, thank you for your hard work, but its gonna be tough to follow.

1412: He was given by some international organization as crime no. 1412.
Kid: Yusaku blurred 1412 into Kid.
I don't know, however, why Kid is now used more than 1412...

In KT's manga scans, he's listed as "Kid the Phantom Thief". Now, since Phantom Thief is Kaitou, it seems he chose to have the name Kid. I guess in DC, they decided to change Kaito's backstory.

Kuroba, Kaito Kuroba, Touichi=His Dad Kaitou Kid: Kaitou Kid is a name that he took from his father. His father used to be Kaitou Kid until he died 8 years ago. Poor Kaito missed him alot...

So Kaito took Chii's place and Acted as Kaitou KID to find his Father's Killers... ~~~~ First Goal: Find His Father's Killers Second Goal: Get the jewel of eternity before they do! ~~ Second Goal Explanation: [Read Right to Left]     They already checked -Saphire (Blue Birthday) Emerald (Green Dream) Topaz (Crystal Mother) Ruby (Lead Tears) Diamond (Ni-oh no Ishi) >> what's next? |

So yeah, like I said before, it seems that Magic Kaito and Detective Conan give different backstories for Kaitou. MK: Kid is the name he took from his father. DC: Kid is a warping of the numbers 1412.
