While it's called lightning because it's based on the fact that ninja, in ancient times, could only think of the natural lightning as a concept for electricity (they didn't have computers like we see during the Anime), the chakra nature is created by molding chakra into electricity.

Bonus: Kakashi's Chidori is just a lightning release technique, it gets called Lightning Cutter (Raikiri) after he actually cut a lightning bolt from the sky and yadda yadda; Sasuke's ultimate electricity technique, Kirin, uses **actual** lightning, so it can be considered the only true lightning release.

<p>I watched Naruto and saw a lot of elements that shinobis were using and I don't know the names of those elements because the subtitle I was watching Naruto with was not English. Do you know the names of 6 elements?. For example, Rikudou sennnin could use the 6 elements and what were the name of those 6 elements ?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
