Banzai is not really relatable here as its a japanese expression/exclamation unique to Japan, equivolent in the west could be something like "live well" or "live long and prosper"(from star trek). Were I am we have no specific expression for this. But when the americans are boming around with their drones we all say dronestrikes.

Conversely, do all americans(I assume you are) compare dronestrikes with polaroid cameras and druid spells? If so you seem desentized to violence.
No, point is, people feel different ways about words. What about a character named Carpetbombing? Or Nuker? Or maybe Nukesalot? What about Slickblade? Pirates? How do you feel about Raiding?
