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)

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)
