Kitayama finds Kurama to be the easiest of the main characters to design due to his well-proportioned features and considers Hiei to be her favorite.
Togashi based Hiei's design off of the character Skunky from the manga series Patalliro! by Mineo Maya. When the two were introduced, the author had early plans to make Kurama a main character but was uncertain about Hiei. Kurama and Hiei's names came to Togashi on the spur of the moment. Mari Kitayama, a lead character designer for the anime adaptation of Yu Yu Hakusho, stated that she considers Kuwabara to be the most difficult character to design. Viz Media said that it is also a pun on " Kuwabara kuwabara", a phrase uttered by superstitious people when they are scared.

Togashi came up with Kazuma Kuwabara's name by combining the names of two professional baseball players ( Masumi Kuwata and Kazuhiro Kiyohara). The author said the name Yusuke Urameshi is "practically a joke." Viz Media explained that the "Yu" is written with the kanji for "ghost", and "Urameshiii." is a phrase typically said by wailing ghosts. He came up with them by skimming through a dictionary and combining kanji characters he found appealing. Yoshihiro Togashi did not give much thought to the names of the characters.
