In Monster Rancher 1, 2, and 3, the song your assistant sings to your monster on its birthday changes depending on how many characters are in your Monster's name. Japanese has a syllable-based alphabet, so in the Japanese version, the lyrics of the song match the melody and at the part with your monster's name, it has the same amount of notes as there are kana. In the English versions, the lyrics are just translated straight and do not match the song, however, the character based factor still remains, so at a certain part the amount of notes in the song will depend on how many characters are in your monsters name, one note for each letter.

I'll try and get some videos of this as an example.
