Light is his actual name, and yes it would be pronounced raito and written in katakana. However, the kanji that you see in the series is a kanji that has one meaning of light. The subbers are correct in using Light as his name. The same goes for Ryuk. Ryuk is what his name was intended to be, but because of the nature of the Japanese language it is pronounced and written in Japanese as ryuku.
Good information can be found on wikipedia here:

Edit:
Also, you might want to go to www.jisho.org and search for akari. The one you are looking for is probably the third one down. Meaning lamplight, light (in general), and brightness. So Light's name might also be a play on how he is the brightest student in Japan. Which is quite a crafty thing that the creators of the manga have done.

There is an old proverb: "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." I'd say that says it all, wouldn't you? ;)

I think Stan Lee said it better...."With great power comes great responsibility." and no I am not a spiderman fan......but I am an X-man fan ;D
Thanatos:
There are some things that I was wondering about, when I saw episode no. 5:
1) This episode has no "What happened last time" at the beginning.
2) At the end of the episode, the title of episode 6 is said to be "Diplomacy", which is also the title of episode 5.
Have the Great Ladies of Live-evil any explanations for these things?

-1 for not looking for a solution in the previous posts before complaining. It's annoying to have people make the same inquiries over and over again.
