#Gaban (1966)

[brookstolemybrand]

On the Gaban / Gyaban thing:

I think it's important to recognise the difference between romanization and translation

Yes, the romanization of ギャバン is indeed gyaban. But it's pretty obvious that this is a katakana transcription of a foreign name and it makes no sense to translate it as if it was a Japanese name (unless you're the kind of person who also spells Luffy's name as "Rufi"...)

So what we actually need to do is to figure out what this ギャバン is a transcription of

You can use a general search engine for this (and I did) but honestly the most convenient resource IMO is this disambiguation page from Japanese Wikipedia which pretty much lists all the results I also got from Google:

gabin

ジャン・ギャバン - フランスの映画俳優。

This is Jean Gabin, famous French actor who was also apparently pretty well-known among Japanese cinephiles, known for playing both criminals and cops

(Gabin is pronounced [gabɛ̃] which... if you don't know IPA, the easiest way to transcribe it in English would be something like "Gabban". It's not exactly correct but it's close enough. Or you can just listen to it here.)

gaban

GABAN - 東京都中央区の香辛料メーカー・ハウスギャバン（旧商号：ギャバン）が販売する香辛料のブランド。由来は綴りは違うが楽器のGambang(ガンバン・カユ)から。

ギャバン (1966年の映画) - 1966年のインド映画。

The first one is a Japanese brand of spice products. It says here that the name comes from an Indonesian musical instrument called gambang, although it's spelled differently for whatever reason (citation needed I guess)

The second one is an Indian film based on the novel by the same name, apparently the title means "embezzlement" in Hindi. There's many different pronunciations given for the word so idk which one this transcription was based on.

gavan

宇宙刑事ギャバン - 日本の特撮テレビドラマとその主人公。綴りは違うが上記の俳優『ジャン・ギャバン』から。

Space Sheriff Gavan, a classic tokusatsu show. Apparently his name is actually based on the aforementioned French actor Jean Gabin (presumably because of his cop roles), which is why his name is actually sometimes written as Gabin

gavane

ギャバン・グーニー - テレビアニメ『∀ガンダム』の登場人物。詳細は∀ガンダムの登場人物#ギャバン・グーニーを参照。

This is Gavane Gooney, a character from Turn A Gundam.

Okay, you might ask why are all of these written "gyaban" then, and not "gaban"? From what I can tell it's just because that's how they transcribe a fronted A vowel in Japanese, at least in some contexts. It's a vowel that doesn't exist in Japanese phonology so the approximation they went with is "ya" (the y sound kinda helps make the vowel sound more frontal). It's the same reason why "gyaru" is written as ギャル even though it comes from the English gal

Also if we're speaking about One Piece, Carrot is also written "kyarotto" キャロット but I don't hear anyone insisting that her name should be localised as "Kyarot" or something

Basically it's the difference between the "short A" (such as in the word gal) and the "long A" (such as in the word father) in English, but in terms of vowel quality rather than length. The short A is pronounced with the tongue slightly closer to the front of the mouth. I think English speakers intuitively pronounce "Gaban" with the long A, which is why I think "Gabban" would be better, but the only example I could find was a character from Fallout New Vegas called Gabban, whose name is indeed written as ギャバン in Japanese

Fallout New Vegas came out in 2010 (in both US and Japan) and I think Scopper was named for the first time in 2012, so technically it's not impossible that this guy was the source for the name, but I would consider it extremely unlikely.

So the most likely intended spellings are Gabin, Gaban, Gavan or Gavane. Gaban is the result that shows up the most and that comes up first, although that might just be because it's a brand. Gabin, Gavan and Gavane are actual names of characters or real people, but none of them have any obvious connections to Scopper Gaban (as far as I know) so it's hard to say if they were used as inspiration.

tl;dr:

It's unclear which name Oda was thinking of, and as far as I know there isn't a famous pirate with a similar name either. Based on these results, "Gaban" seems like a decent option, although in terms of pronunciation (for English speakers) "Gabban" would probably be even better.

(Also Yaa-san is apparently a euphemism for yakuza member and might not even have anything to do with his name. Besides, if it was based on his name it would probably be more like Gya-san anyway.)
