Talk:Russian

Name?
Mangastream translated her name as "Lucy-Anne" rather than Lucian. They've had the most accurate translations so far, so I just thought her name might actually be Lucy-Anne (In the same way that "Watel Law" was actually "Water Law", which they also got correct).

Mangastream have a track record of localising translations rather than being literal. I'll see if Klobis can translate it directly.

Still, Lucian is a far more common name for men than it is for women. Lucy-Anne is more accurate considering the character is a woman. 18:45, January 29, 2015 (UTC)

Isn't Lucian a man's name? 04:16, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

I'd say Lucy-Anne unless it's specifically written Lucian since they're pronounced the same in Japanese and Lucy-Anne makes more sense. 04:24, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

I've asked Klobis, let's wait to move it until we hear from him. 04:27, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

We don't really need to wait. Even Lucienne is better than what we have. Lucian is for an article about a dude. 07:04, January 30, 2015 (UTC)

Now that we see the romanization, I think Mangastream got it right with Lucy-Anne. I'm going to move this if there are no objections. Lucian is just not a chick's name. 09:49, January 31, 2015 (UTC)

Precisely, since it comes from From Russia with Love, it is Russian. But I think Lucianne is appropriate for the woman's name (Rushian). Lucy-Anne is Rūshī-an and Lucienne is Rushien or Rushiennu in Japanese. --Klobis (talk) 11:16, January 31, 2015 (UTC)

Done. 14:55, January 31, 2015 (UTC)

Come on people. It's gotta be Russian. Doesn't anybody here sees the alcohol pattern? Gimlet and Russian are both cocktails. There is White Russian and Black Russian. Heck just Google the Japanese name and it'll give you Black Russian results. 24.21.222.233 07:20, February 3, 2015 (UTC)

And Ryu said unto the discussion: "OPEN SESAME".

Actually, not too much to discuss. Volume 78 SBS confirmed that it's Russian, as in the cocktail. So we can go ahead and move this now, without much of a fight. Right? 14:08, July 2, 2015 (UTC)

Deceased?
I thought she still is in a comatose situation, rather than being dead... --Meganoide (talk) 14:45, January 30, 2015 (UTC)
 * Ok, she's dead. Meganoide (talk) 14:51, January 30, 2015 (UTC)
 * Better to do that than to get into a whole big "what is living?" debate. 21:57, January 31, 2015 (UTC)

Time period and location
Can we at least add a time reference from when Senior made his family? We should know at least the period, shouldn't we?

Somewhere in between Cora's death and taking over Dressrosa. The first time we see him dressed in baby clothes is during their takeover of Dressrosa. What I wonder is where Lucian lived. This page shows the island she lived on, and it has a large mountain in the middle of the city, very similar to Dressrosa. I'm not sure if it actually IS Dressrosa though, because I cannot find a decent image of the Royal Plateau before Pica altered it. If it is Dressrosa though, that would mean that DD's crew (or at least Senor) lived on Dressrosa for some time before taking it over. 16:26, February 1, 2015 (UTC)

It's reasonable to assume that it's not Dressrosa, then.

16:46, February 1, 2015 (UTC)

Yeah, I just remembered Dressrosa's royal plateau is some sculpted thing, so that's definitely not it in the picture. Anyways, I'll update the pages with the timeline. 16:16, February 2, 2015 (UTC)

With "time reference" I meant like "X years ago", an absolute reference instead one relative to other events.
