Talk:Shishilian

Name Pun
While I understand that シシリアン means Sicilian and it's policy to use exact translations where they exist, it's pretty clear that Oda was going for the Shishi = Lion pun. I think it's wrong to ignore it completely, and there are two viable options: Personally, I prefer the second option, but either would be better than the current name. 104.238.45.36 12:41, November 28, 2015 (UTC)
 * Japanese: Shishilian
 * English: Sicilion

We don't use pun-based names here, so no. Obviously the Katakana needs to be read as "Lion" in the first place and the last syllable in Shishirian (シシリアン) does not sound like a lion.

I think it's fine because the pun is noted in the trivia section. 14:44, November 28, 2015 (UTC)

We don't use pun-based names here? I see many pun-based names in this wiki.

Before somebody sites Peekatha Krotch as an example, those names are literally translated and not changed to fit the pun. 15:36, November 28, 2015 (UTC)

Well technically, it's not a literal translation. But we still use Aremo Ganmi on the wiki and note "Peekatha Krotch" as just the official english translation anyway. 04:22, November 29, 2015 (UTC)

So I guess some people want the extended version of that trivia. It isn't needed. We just need the short version. SeaTerror (talk) 20:56, March 21, 2016 (UTC)

A couple of the other minks (such as Wanda and Monjii) have trivia explaining the pun in their name, so I don't see why not for Sicilian as well.--Xilinoc (talk) 23:13, March 21, 2016 (UTC)

The "lian" part being a reference to lion seems just a bit too much like a coincidence to me, compared to how obvious "shishi" is. Again, this would just turn into an opinion-based discussion, though. 12:31, March 26, 2016 (UTC)

Epithet?
Why was his epithet removed exactly? I can understand if "Full Power" wasn't exactly the best translation, but it still seems like he has one, and it should be here if he does. It captures his over-the-top personality and tendency to do the things to max perfectly, and he has probably one of the most personality-fitting epithets in the series.
