The meaning of the title of this game is Uta(歌/song) + Touch.
How do you feel about this idea?

The official site says Utacchi.

I like fuzzball argument (I would use "U-touch" instead).

Is "utacchi" used anywhere on the official site other than the URL? Note that "utacchi" is a wrong "direct" romanization according to Hepburn, it should be "utatchi" (cch -> tch). And logo is probably partitioned for a reason.

I think of Utacchi like the spelling made intending it.

歌(Uta/song) + タッチ(Touch) + たっちぃ(Tatchii)
たっちぃ is a mascot character of the frog that appears in this game.

"Uta" + Tou"ch" + Tat"chi"i = Utacchi

-Reason to use cchi
It is in this case because the conversion input to Japanese can be done by the spelling of utacchi.

I'll just keep current title then.

Thank you all for ideas/opinions.
