Kudo got the name from two famous mystery writers; Conan Doyle and Edogawa Rampo. Conan now lives with his childhood friend Ran Mori (also known as Rachel Moore in English) with her dad who is a really bad detective. They call him Kogoro Mori (English name Richard Moore), ever since Conan has been staying at the Mori home, Kogoro  has been solving thousands of cases, thus giving his title The Sleeping Sleuth. He became a good detective because Conan keeps knocking him out with a tranquilizer wrist watch and using his voice-changing bow tie. Conan is staying at Kogoro's home thinking it would lead him to the Black Organization and getting his body back to normal.
