  • devil sometimes cry and ppl says tat devil never cry so then devil did cry and thus people conclude devil may cry however none have survive an encounter with a devil thus they can never be sure they DID cry so thus it can only be concluded devil MAY cry. So there.
  • Originally the phrase "Devil May Cry" was fished out during a conversation between Dante and Lady at the end of Devil May Cry 3(Please bare in mind that it's a preqeul to the previous installments). After the supposed loss of Dante's brother Vergil, Dante is stricken with grief. Lady notices this which leads her to ask if he's crying. He replies "It's only the rain", to which Lady confirms that he was crying for the rain had stopped already stopped abruptly after his answer. She then concludes out loud the following: "Maybe somewhere out there even a devil may crywhen he looses a loved one. Don't you think?" Proptly after the events of the of DMC3, Dante opens up shop in which he titles it: "Devil May Cry".
  • I think its in some way related to the phrase "Devil may care", which is the name of quite alot of different stuff including a Sherlock Holmes book. At the moment I'm still looking into it but I can only presume its some kind of play on that theme, reversing the meaning I think.
