No, she isn't. At least not that I know of.

After all, the same surnames don't mean relativity.

Example: Somewhere in Löbau (town where I go to school) is an eye doctor with the same surname as mine. And she is not my mother or anything like that.

Not at all.

You see, in Clock Tower II: The Struggle Within, everyone's names were changed to make the game more, uh, American. His name was originally Fushito Saidou, but it was changed to George Maxwell. Whether or not his last name is reference to Ms. Maxwell from Clock Tower (2) is unknown.

And I highly doubt that Alyssa is a relative to Jennifer.

I definitely vote no considering this game originally takes place inside of Japan with japanese names. I can't believe the american translators tried to pass it off as California. What a bunch of gooberfests.

I can only imagine if they had gone the route of what Atlus did with Revelations: Persona and really tried to Americanize everyone. Meaning that Alyssa Hale would be lighter skin with blonde hair and blue eyes. Bates would probably have black hair, red eyes, or whatever craziness. Maybe even make Shannon speak in a valley girl accent. Corey can stay as he's like, he was a perfect transition. Bowman is God. Uh, something along to that effect.

Thanks a lot Enigma. You just made me want to claw out my freaking eyes at the pure notion of such gaming translation travesties. Hope you're happy.

No relation whatsoever. It is just a name they chose for him. It doesn't mean anything.

I noticed that in the later Clock Tower games, they are started to use names from previous games, such as:

Helen Maxwell = George Maxwell.
Alyssa Hale = Alyssa Hamilton.
Philip Tate = Philip Hamilton.
Kathryn Tate = Kathy [Clock Tower 3 Drama CD].

Is there anyone else I'm missing? I think that's pretty much everyone.
