Bad translation by viz and the promotional translators.

In japanese, It's "supposed" to be kakaratto, but It's used as a glottal stop, so the english translators Instead went with Kakarot as they don't follow the same principals.

In Japanese, there are no singular consonants besides n, just vowel sounds and consonant/vowel syllables like "ka" or, in this case, "ot"

When preparing westernized translations, they drop everything after the stop, It's not the "proper" translation as stated above, just one that the western audience gets.

Trunk's name in japanese is Torunkusu but is translated as Torunks since the stop isn't Included.

When it comes to Barlot, It's just bad translation.
