Gerudo can also be written as "Geldo", like the Geldman and Geldarm enemies
(both of whom are usually found in deserts, like the Gerudo)

Same deal as Zora/Zola

So like gregarious, or genie? Because those are two different "g"'s.

Ah, of course. Shouldve guessed it had Japanese origins to it.

It does have some J sounds, but there isn't a "Je" sound (as in germ). You're right that they wouldn't be able to write it as "Jerudo"

I don't think it coming from Japanese is the problem. TC appears to not have a very firm grasp on the English language, either.
